What Worries Does

Something happens when we’re too busy for Jesus and when we get distracted.

1) Worry
2) Anxious
3) Loss of Focus

Avoid the distraction, allow the interruption.

Luke 10:38-42
38 As Jesus and the disciples continued on their way to Jerusalem, they came to a certain village where a woman named Martha welcomed him into her home. 39 Her sister, Mary, sat at the Lord’s feet, listening to what he taught. 40 But Martha was distracted by the big dinner she was preparing. She came to Jesus and said, “Lord, doesn’t it seem unfair to you that my sister just sits here while I do all the work? Tell her to come and help me.”

41 But the Lord said to her, “My dear Martha, you are worried and upset over all these details! 42 There is only one thing worth being concerned about. Mary has discovered it, and it will not be taken away from her.”

The Power of Influence

Forgive the sound quality!

We’re talking about the power of influence. Influence is POWERFUL! Hear me out, what do great leaders have in common? Whether good or bad? They have the ability to influence!

We often wonder, how could Hitler convince people to try to exterminate the Jewish race? He had influence.

MooreTime Podcast – Career Boundaries

Boundaries are something we know we should establish, yet rarely do. Today, we discussed boundaries in our careers. What do they look like? How do you encourage your spouse or significant other to pursue their dreams? How do you hold them accountable to their goals? What does investing in each other’s career look like?

Hope in Loss

Losing a loved one is always difficult. There really aren’t enough words or right words to help a person cope. You’ve been that person, I’m sure. You’ve been the one who lost a loved one. You’ve tried to process how you feel, which is often the hardest part.

And you’ve likely been the person on the other side. The one trying to help the griever cope with their loss. However, you’ve no doubt felt that words were inadequate for the weight of the situation. This verse has helped me cope during those difficult times.

‭‭Proverbs 10:7 NLT‬‬
[7] We have happy memories of the godly, but the name of a wicked person rots away.

This is important. We have happy memories of the godly. Those who lived a life for God leave us with happy memories of them. We can celebrate their lives knowing the eternity that awaits them. Yes, for some, these are still mere words, but for the godly, this is hope. For us, it is peace of mind. To our family of believers, this is a reminder of God’s faithfulness.

That doesn’t mean that it isn’t hard still. What it does mean is that there’s peace and hope even in the midst of grief.

Idolatry… It’s hard to believe we have idols today, but when you actually think about it, it’s not. We may not carve images and bow before them, but we do dedicate hours upon hours to them. We do choose them over what’s best for us. We make sacrifices for them.

So ask yourself, is there an idol in your life? Is there something you are willing to admit that you choose over God? Tune in as I had to have this conversation with myself. The answer broke my heart.

Choose the Most Rewarding

Image by Jacob D.

Kindness is rewarding. An interview on the science of kindness with Dr. Marcie Hall states that,

“It helps you feel more relaxed. So, by increasing serotonin, kindness is able to decrease feelings of depression and anxiety and increase your happiness. And then another benefit is that it increases your endorphins.”

Science is yet again catching up with what God has said from the beginning. There are benefits to being kind.

Here’s what I’m talking about:
‭‭Proverbs 11:17 NLT‬‬
Your kindness will reward you, but your cruelty will destroy you.

Now, a reward isn’t always material. The reward could be kindness in return. It could be recognition one day in the future. It could simply be the joy you receive from being kind.

Yet, just as much, the latter is true. Your cruelty will destroy you. Cruelty looks like hatred. It’s not just physical but can also cause mental harm. It can be bullying someone, making fun of them, or spreading rumors.

So remember, kindness is rewarded. Cruelty leads to destruction. Every day, in every moment, you can choose which act you want to be a part of. I hope you choose the most rewarding. Let’s make kindness great.
