How To Make Time For Jesus

          Finding time to read and study the Word is very difficult when you're busy. We are often caught up in our busy schedules and the thought of growing closer to God does not even cross our mind. Here's some ways to add some devotions into your day:

 1. Before School or Work 
          Getting up an extra 5 minutes earlier will not kill you. Take a few minutes to read the bible or a devotional in the mornings while you are getting ready or eat breakfast.

 2. During Your Lunch Break
          For me, this is the best time of day to sit down and focus of my relationship with God. I almost always take time to open up my Bible app and read the daily verse or a short devotional. You can do this while you eat which makes it even better!

 3. Before You Go To Sleep
          I'm usually pretty tired at this point, but if you are busy all day, this is the best time for you. Curl up in bed with your Bible or phone app and spend some quality time with God. Maybe you'll even dream about the scripture.

 --My Favorite Bible App--
My favorite app is pictured on the left and is literally called "Bible." It has the Bible is every version you could think of. My favorites are NIV and The Message. There is a daily bible verse, which is definitely my favorite feature! It also has plans, which are daily devotionals over different topics. Notifications can be set to remind you at your choice of time to read your selected plan. You have a profile which allows you to have bookmarks, highlights, and even take notes! You can share all of these with your friends. My name is Juliana Travis if you would like to add me!

Sunk

          Have you ever felt like you've sunk? Hit rock bottom, failed, or gotten stuck?            What happens if a boat isn’t built with the correct materials? It sinks. What happens if its load is too heavy? It sinks. What happens if it gets a crack or hole in it? It sinks.            Just like a boat can sink, our lives can sink too. If our strength isn't found in Jesus Christ, we can't have the correct materials to stay afloat. God is the sole provider of everything that we need to live joyful, fulfilling lives. Without God in us, we don't have the tools and resources to keep our boats from sinking.            Our lives can easily become overwhelmed with stress, anxiety, and other problems that weigh us down. You have to be cautious about how these things are pulling your life. Is your stress chained to your ankle like an anchor pulling you down? Take a step back and evaluate what is dragging you down in your life and what you can do to fix it. Things

What To Do When You Feel Like Your World Is Falling Apart

          So obviously you feel like your world is falling apart, or else you  wouldn't be here on this blog right now.  Sometimes in life, things go wrong that you can't understand and that is 100% OK. Whether its from a relationship, a friendship, a job, or any other situation, here are a few things you can do to make yourself feel better. 1.  Look At Your Relationship With God           The number one reason why you probably have no hope left is because you have put more effort into other aspects of your life than you have into your personal relationship with God.  Think of this less as a tragedy and more as a wake up call.  God is calling you to come back to him.  You have to take more time to pray and read the Bible and make Him your number one priority again. 2.  Look At What Went Wrong           Take a step back and really think about it:  Was the situation unhealthy? Was it dragging you down and draining you emotionally?   You  don't need anything that
