Putting the Bible First in a World Full of Distractions We’ve all been there. You wake up, and the first thing you do is grab your phone. You scroll through social media, check the news, see what everyone’s posting, and before you know it, your mind is already entangled in the world’s noise. It’s almost like you’ve already stepped into the rhythm of the world before your feet even hit the ground. But what if we flipped that script? What if, instead of starting our day with th
"Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it” We live in an age where distraction isn’t just a temptation, it’s the default. Our phones buzz, our schedules overflow, and we’re constantly pulled in a dozen directions. The world fights for our attention, and if we’re not careful, it can quietly shape our values, our desires, and even our relationship with God. That’s why Proverbs 4:23 is so countercultural. It’s a call to be intentional, to protect wha
In a world full of noise, influence, and constant distractions, it is easy to lose sight of what really matters. But there’s one verse I’m constantly brought back to, one that centers me, grounds me, and reminds me of who I’m called to be: "Love must be sincere. Hate what is evil. Cling to what is good.” – Romans 12:9 (NIV) This verse has significantly shaped how I walk through life. It’s taught me how to love deeply and genuinely, and how to hold fast to what is good, even w
Rooted in Faith, Growing in Love The phrase equally yoked comes from 2 Corinthians 6:14, and over time, it’s quietly shaped how I think about relationships, especially the ones that invite us to build something lasting: friendship, partnership, even community. In Scripture, the image is simple but profound, two oxen joined by a yoke, walking side by side. If they aren’t equally matched, if one moves faster or pulls harder, they end up working against each other. The journey
Seeing the Beauty in Others Beyond the World’s Labels “A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another; even as I have loved you, that you also love one another.” — John 13:34 (RSVCE) We live in a world that loves to label. Popular, awkward, broken, successful, lazy, sinner, saint. Sometimes we’re quick to assign value based on what someone looks like, how they talk, where they’re from, or what they’ve done. But that’s not how Jesus sees people, and it’s not how we
For a long time, I thought faith was mostly about Sundays, sitting in a pew, saying the prayers, checking the box. I thought following Jesus meant showing up to church, dressing respectfully, and trying not to mess up too badly during the week. Church was where I saw Him, and the rest of the week was just… life. But slowly, through some hard seasons and beautiful friendships, I began to realize that Jesus doesn’t want to just visit us once a week. He wants to walk with us eve
I’ve always considered myself Catholic. Growing up, I went to church on Sundays, mostly on holidays or whenever it felt “mandatory.” I believed in God, but I didn’t really know Him . My faith was more of a background presence than something I actively pursued. That started to change after I went to college. During my first couple of years, I still believed, but I didn’t really focus on Jesus. He wasn’t at the center of my life. I was distracted, busy, and honestly didn’t know
Hello, Welcome to this little corner of the internet, a space born from quiet mornings, whispered prayers, and a longing to share what it means to walk with Jesus as a twenty-something woman learning, stumbling, and growing. I’m Liv, a girl in her 20s, held by grace and learning to trust God one day at a time. This season of life is full of questions, shifting plans, deep joy, and honest surrender. It’s where becoming feels both beautiful and uncertain. But I’ve found again a
