4124 Put the Phone Down
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
We live in a world wired for distraction. Endless notifications, the addictive drag of social media feeds, and the constant buzz of other people’s highlight reels can pull us from what truly matters. We wonder why we feel stuck—trapped in what has happened, fixated on what didn’t work, and overwhelmed by the noise of life. But here’s the brutal truth: if the past leads your present, you’re not moving forward—you’re treading water. Put the phone down. Stop scrolling through other people’s curated moments, the endless barrage of “perfect” lives. Desire to be supported and...

4123 Get Through Today
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
In a world buzzing with endless tasks, deadlines, and distractions, it’s easy to get caught up in the chaos of what’s next. We pile on to-do lists, strategize for tomorrow’s meetings, plan meals, manage errands, and somehow forget the most important moment—the present. The secret isn’t to conquer every challenge at once, but to zero in on what calls for your attention right now. The goal is simple: get through today. Matthew 6:34 says— “Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.” Desire to be supported...

4122 What If You Lowered the Bar?
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
How much of your time is wasted feeling overwhelmed while trying to do everything with excellence? Excellence is always great. But maybe good is enough. Expectations are hard to reach, especially when you set the bar high for absolutely everything. So what if you lowered the bar? Standards are a double-edged sword. They can work to your advantage. They push you to grow, to care about your output, to take pride in what you produce. But standards can also become a stumbling block — one that holds you hostage to procrastination and overwhelm. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other...

4121 Live Where God is Growing You
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
It’s tempting to live in a state of “almost”—almost ready, almost fulfilled, almost free. We tell ourselves that real life will start when circumstances change, when prayers get answers, when doors finally open. But in the process, we miss what God is actively doing right here, right now, in the soil beneath our feet. So much of your energy gets wasted longing for what should be that you fail to live where God is growing you. If you find yourself watching time slip away with hope pinned on some future moment, don’t wait to live. Live where God is growing you. Desire to be...

4120 Reveal My Own Heart
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
Marriage is often painted as a dance of two individuals growing together. But too often, that dance becomes a blame game in which one partner points out what the other isn’t doing, expecting change to come from outside rather than from within. We demand more from our spouses—more attention, more effort, more affection—while neglecting the vital question: what am I bringing to this table? Reveal my own heart. Imagine if, instead of scrutinizing your spouse’s shortcomings, you first took a long, hard look at your own heart—the good, the bad, and the ugly. Desire to be supported and...

4119 The Gift of Home
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
Parents have so many responsibilities besides raising their children. And when everything gets a little out of hand, it's easy to feel overwhelmed as if you're the worst parent ever, barely keeping your head above water, wondering if you’re failing your children. But you are doing the best you can. What matters most isn’t perfection—it’s what you pour into your children every single day. That is the gift of home. Home is more than walls and furniture. It’s the sanctuary your children carry in their hearts, shaped by your presence, your love, and your teaching. Desire to be supported...

4118 Welcome the Unknown as a Doorway
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
Standing on the edge of something new can be terrifying. The unknown stretches before you like a vast, uncharted ocean, and self-doubt is the anchor that threatens to keep you stuck on familiar shores. But waiting for certainty is waiting to stay stuck. If you want a life that matters, you have to learn to welcome the unknown as a doorway, not a detour. History—and countless stories—show that greatness rarely arrives wrapped in comfort and clarity. Instead, it strides in wearing uncertainty like armor and possibility like a weapon. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded...

4117 Find Your Path
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
In a world dominated by social media feeds and constant connectivity, becoming the person you are meant to be feels almost impossible. Every scroll hooks you into the comparison trap—measuring your behind-the-scenes against someone else’s highlight reel. This endless competition to be what we’re not steals our attention and energy. Ask yourself honestly: Where are you right now? Are you living your life, or are you caught up in comparing yourself to others? Find your path! Living someone else’s life is confusing. It’s debilitating. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other...

4116 Step Into Your Worth
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
We all face moments where failure feels oversized, where defeat seems like a script we're doomed to replay. But here’s the truth no one tells you enough: you don’t have to keep rehearsing your failures. The key to living the life designed for you is to stop replaying what went wrong and instead step into your worth—boldly, unapologetically, relentlessly. Isaiah 40:31 promises, “But those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.” This isn’t just encouragement—it’s a...

4115 Defeat Is Just A Mindset
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
Failure and defeat are not the same thing, though we treat them like twins. Failure is an event. It happened, it's done, it's a fact you can point to on a timeline — a match lost, a deal that fell through, a goal that didn't land. Defeat is something else entirely. Defeat is not what happened to you; it's what you decide to do — or not do — afterward. It's less an event and more a mindset, and mindsets, unlike results, are chosen. Defeat is just a mindset. This is the part people miss. Nobody hands you defeat. You're not defeated the moment you lose — you're defeated the moment...
info_outlineKristine Sperling with Makes 3 Organics shares her story of how listening to her heart opened up a new adventure. As a finance attorney turned entrepreneur, you will be amazed by her passion and talents to help others.
Kristine Sperling: A wife of 10 years, a mother to a beautiful daughter, and a financial attorney of 12 years turned entrepreneur. She decided to retire from her corporate life, and embark on a journey that would broaden her horizons. With her daughter's development of asthma, eczema, food and environmental allergies, she found herself learning how to clean up and detox the household to give hope for better health. And then the spark was ignited!
"We just decided to create our own to solve the problem for our family."
