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...

Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo

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...

Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo

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?

Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo

It’s easy to hide behind a mask — the carefully crafted image of who you think you should be or what you don’t want anyone to see. Behind this disguise, you might feel safer, less vulnerable. But you cannot move forward or live the life you were meant to live with God’s divine purpose in mind if you’re trapped behind that mask. So, put down your mask. Please put down your mask.

3954 How Do You Shift In Real Time? show art 3954 How Do You Shift In Real Time?

Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo

Life isn’t a straight path. It’s a wild mix of flavors, textures, highs, lows, wins, and setbacks. You grind to reach certain milestones, but just when you think you’ve arrived, reality reminds you there’s more hustle, more growth, more shifting to do. So how do you shift in real time when life throws you curveballs? Are you the kind of person who acts like you’ve already done the hard work—like you’ve ticked the box—only to wash your hands of responsibility? Then you lean back, waiting for the next step to come to you. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded...

Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo

Have you ever paused to consider how God truly wants you to show up each day? It’s easy to walk into church on Sunday with a smile and a heart full of joy—or at least a glimpse of it. But ask yourself: how genuine is that moment? Is it real and life-giving? Or is it just a performance, a mask worn for the crowd, for appearances? God doesn’t need the mask. He sees behind it. He knows the truth that we often try to hide, even from ourselves. No more words. Jesus said it plainly in Matthew 5, in the Beatitudes—a blueprint for living “God’s way.” It’s a call to something deeper...

3952 Are You Chasing the Wrong Part of the Heart? show art 3952 Are You Chasing the Wrong Part of the Heart?

Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo

Marriage. A word that conjures images of bliss, partnership, and forever—but also confusion, frustration, and unexpected challenges. When two people say, “I do,” it isn’t just a promise to love; it’s an entry into a complicated dance of needs, expectations, and realities. And somewhere along the way, you might find yourself wondering: Are you chasing the wrong part of the heart? Let’s be real—too many people step into marriage thinking it’s all about them. They want their partner’s role to serve their needs, validate their feelings, and eliminate inconveniences. Desire to be...

Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo

When your children are little, parenting feels all-consuming. Overwhelm doesn't even seem like a fitting word, yet you’re hands-on from feeding to teaching to fixing. Every day is full of immediate needs,  constant crisis management, and unconditional love sprinkled throughout. It’s easy to believe that how you prepare the way means just getting them through those early years. But then, they grow. They move into adolescence, young adulthood, and beyond—and suddenly the kind of parenting required shifts. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the...

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): “Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters, since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving.

This scripture reminds us that no task is too trivial when done with a heart oriented toward God. The dishes you wash, the emails you send, the conversations you have—they all hold spiritual significance when aligned with a desire to honor God.

In fact, Jesus points us to this daily intersection in Luke 16:10 (NIV): “Whoever can be trusted with very little can also be trusted with much, and whoever is dishonest with very little will also be dishonest with much.

Faithfulness in the “little” things of life is the foundational soil where spiritual growth happens. When we overlook the mundane, we miss opportunities to live out God’s values: kindness, patience, and integrity.

Another powerful truth is found in Matthew 6:33 (NIV): “But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.

Seeking God’s kingdom isn’t only about grand gestures or major decisions; it’s also about putting Him first in how you handle your daily commitments, your mindset during challenges, and your attitude toward others.

The K.I.S.S. ~ Why the small stuff matters to God!

So, what does it look like when faith and daily life intersect? It means choosing gratitude over grumbling in traffic, offering compassion when stressed, or praying quietly during a moment of overwhelm.

It’s living with the awareness that your everyday actions echo far beyond your immediate circumstances—they resonate in God’s bigger story.

Don’t get trapped in the illusion that your faith is separate from your daily grind. It’s precisely where you are—right now—that God wants to meet you. When you stop glossing over what feels mundane and instead invite God into those moments, your life reflects a faith that’s honest, active, and deeply rooted.

“You are not just a Sunday Christian,” Paul reminds us in Romans 12:1 (paraphrased): offer your whole self every day as a living sacrifice—holy and pleasing to God. Your daily life is your worship. It’s where you say, “God, I trust You here.”

So let faith and life collide—in your 9 to 5, your family chaos, your quiet mornings. That’s where the real work happens. This is what really matters—not just to you, but more importantly to God.

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