Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo

Parenting is like running a red zone play in football — the stakes are sky-high, the pressure’s crushing, and every move matters more than usual. You’re tired, stretched thin, and the margin for error feels paper-thin. It’s that relentless zone where kids need you most, but sometimes in red zone parenting, you just want to drop the playbook and cry. No one often says: being a great parent doesn’t mean you have to be perfect. The real power comes from showing up as you are—flawed, vulnerable, exhausted—and still choosing love and presence.  Desire to be supported...

Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo

Too often, we’re sold the myth that success means shouldering everything solo. You’re told to grind, hustle, and prove yourself by pushing harder—alone. But here’s the truth: you’re not less for needing help. You’re smart and strong for building a team you can rely on; find strength in your team. Let's being in the experts of the week: look at Super Bowl quarterbacks.

Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo

Do you want to play like a champion? Then start by treating your mind and body like they actually matter. Because if you're honest with yourself, talent and hustle can only carry you so far when your fuel tank is running on empty, your brain is fogged, and your body is begging for rest. The power of peak performance is not just for the field. So fuel like a champion. The elite football players of the Super Bowl. They don’t just show up to practice—they obsess over how they eat, sleep, and recover. That’s their secret weapon.  Desire to be supported and encouraged by other...

Have you ever pondered what's your game plan for greatness in life? When the pressure mounts and the stakes skyrocket, only one thing separates champions from the rest: your mindset.

3960 Why the Small Stuff Matters to God show art 3960 Why the Small Stuff Matters to God

Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo

Have you ever thought why the small stuff matters to God? Shouldn't just the big things that shift your life get all the attention? It’s easy to let your everyday get swallowed up by the routines and distractions, work deadlines, household chores, and endless to-do lists that we often overlook where our faith truly intersects with our everyday moments. But you must remember, God cares deeply about the seemingly small, mundane parts of your day. It’s in these moments that your faith becomes real, not just a Sunday sentiment but a lived reality. Consider Colossians 3:23–24 (NIV):...

Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo

Marriage isn’t just the big moments: the wedding day, anniversaries, or vacations. A huge part of it happens in the "in-between": the daily grind, the shuffle of family life, the countless errands, work schedules, and responsibilities that fill every corner of your time. In this chaos, it's easy and dangerously common for spouses to drift apart without even noticing. You’re both so busy serving the kids, managing the household, or chasing careers that choosing to connect as a couple takes a backseat. You become like two ships passing in the day and night, present but distant. Your marriage...

Parenting is a relentless hustle. Sleepless nights blur into days of heartache, frustration, and moments when it feels like your efforts go unnoticed. In the chaos of discipline, schedules, and tears, it’s easy to lose sight of the fact that you are the constant in your child’s world—their anchor and their guide. The truth is, what you say last in any interaction leaves a lasting imprint. That’s why it’s crucial: make your last word good. What does that mean? It means shifting focus from reaction to reflection. It means choosing the lasting message you want your child to take...

Life doesn’t wait for you to be ready. It hits hard, fast, and often without warning. When the storms roll in, they can scar your days and steal the peace from your nights. It’s raw. It’s real. And frankly, it’s not fun. Life has never been easy for anyone who’s ever done more than just exist. If you want to stand tall—if you want to break past the pain—you have to dig a little deeper. Digging deeper means rolling up your sleeves and getting your hands and heart a little dirty, diving headfirst into the mess that life throws your way. Desire to be supported and encouraged by...

3956 Why Does Everything Healthy Taste So Bad? show art 3956 Why Does Everything Healthy Taste So Bad?

Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo

Healthy living rarely feels easy. We say we want to be healthier, but when faced with salads that seem like lawn clippings or bland steamed veggies, we ask ourselves: Why does everything healthy taste so bad? The frustration isn’t just about flavor; it’s a symptom of a deeper battle between what our bodies crave and what our minds resist. Your taste buds and your body are often on two different pages, and that disconnect trips up even the most committed. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

As Jesus Christ entered Jerusalem on that fateful day amidst cries of "Hosanna in the highest," He did so with a profound understanding of what lay ahead. Triumphs to tribulations; a blessing in disguise for you and me.

Despite the jubilant reception and praises of the crowd, Jesus knew that within the walls of the city, betrayal, suffering, and the ultimate sacrifice awaited Him.

While filled with adoration, these accolades could not shield Jesus from the imminent trial of his faith and the fulfillment of his ultimate purpose.

With unwavering resolve and unwavering faith, Jesus moved forward, embracing his destiny even as it led him to the city where he would be betrayed by one of his own. His entry into Jerusalem symbolized the paradox of triumph and tribulation, as the cries of "Hosanna" mingled with the shadows of the cross that awaited Him.

Do you ever feel like you have reached the pinnacle, only to find a deeper plunge into the unknown on the other side?

The K.I.S.S. ~ A blessing in disguise!

Life has a way of twisting and turning, from trials and tribulations to triumphs. And then, it repeats itself again.

However, the key I noticed was that Jesus had faith. He knew His purpose and was more than willing to follow through. Would you be willing to do the same?

Are you willing to do the same?

In the face of impending betrayal, Jesus' courage and conviction shone brightly, illuminating the path for all who would follow. His journey into Jerusalem serves as a poignant reminder that true strength lies not in avoiding adversity, but in facing it head-on with steadfast faith and unwavering purpose.

As we contemplate Jesus's entry into the city where betrayal awaited Him, let us be inspired by his example of enduring faith and sacrificial love. May we carry the spirit of "Hosanna in the highest" in our hearts, acknowledging that even in the darkest moments, the light of redemption and salvation shines brightest.

"Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"
