3 Short Devotionals to Anchor Your Heart in a Busy Season
-
Devotional 1: Come As You Are
Scripture:“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.” – Matthew 11:28 (NIV)
Hey friend,
I don’t know what today held for you — dishes piled high, endless emails, or toddlers clinging to your legs. But I do know this: Jesus isn’t waiting for a polished version of you.
He simply says, “Come.”
Not “Come when you’re caught up.”
Not “Come when you’ve prayed an hour.”
Just... come.You can sit with Him in the chaos. You can whisper prayers in the carpool line or breathe His name between tasks. He’s not measuring your time — He’s welcoming your heart.
So let go of the guilt. Pull up a chair, even if it’s just for five minutes. He’s already here.
Reflection Prompt:
What’s keeping you from coming to Jesus today? Take a deep breath and tell Him where you are — no filter needed. -
Devotional 2: One Small Step
Scripture: “Do not despise these small beginnings, for the Lord rejoices to see the work begin.” – Zechariah 4:10a (NLT)
We love big, bold beginnings. The 5 a.m. alarms. The color-coded Bible plans. The 30-day devotionals.
But you know what God loves? Small, faithful steps.
One verse whispered at lunch.
One prayer scribbled in a planner.
One moment of silence before the day begins.It doesn’t have to be fancy. It just has to be real.
Start small today. You’re not behind — you’re beginning again, and that matters more than you know.
Reflection Prompt:
What’s one small thing you can do today to spend time with God — and actually enjoy it? -
Devotional 3: Sacred in the Simple
Scripture: “Surely the Lord is in this place, and I was not aware of it.” – Genesis 28:16 (NIV)
We often think we need a candlelit corner and an hour of silence to meet with God. But sister, God is not limited to quiet rooms.
He’s stirring your heart while you fold laundry.
He’s near in the grocery store parking lot.
He’s whispering peace while the kids argue over cereal.The sacred isn’t separate from the simple. The holy happens right in the middle of your real life.
Don’t wait for perfect conditions to seek Him. Just look around — He’s already closer than you think.
Reflection Prompt:
What simple moment today felt unexpectedly sacred? Thank God for meeting you there.
