4009 Trust in the Lord
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
There is so much going on nowadays that the only thing we can be confident in is God's love for us.

(Proverbs 3:5-6)" Trust is the one thing that builds our faith. Faith comes by hearing. We walk by faith, not by sight because of the trust we have in Jesus Christ.

4006 See the Good
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
We live in a world wired to spotlight the worst. Tune into the news, scroll through social media, and you’re bombarded with the dramas, the disasters, and the divides.

4005 Find Sweetness in Your Own Progress
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
Comparison is the thief of joy and the silent killer of dreams. It’s no surprise that when you’re caught in its grip, your potential and progress don’t just stall—they melt away like chocolate under the blazing sun. However, you must find sweetness in your own progress. Otherwise, you watch others sprint ahead, assuming they’re running a race you should be winning, and suddenly your own journey feels inadequate, unworthy, and painfully slow.

4004 Prepare Your Mind
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
Your actions begin with your thoughts. If you want to live life on purpose, you must prepare your mind. Otherwise, everyone and everything will jump in front of the goals you’re setting out to accomplish and bulldoze right over them. Take St. Patrick, for example—the man behind the St. Patrick’s Day legacy. His story isn’t just about shamrocks and celebrations; it’s an example of mental preparation that led to unwavering purpose.

4002 Untouchable, But Is He?
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
Sometimes, it’s easy to feel like God is distant; far above us, unreachable, untouchable, but is He?

4001 Seen By Few, Felt By One
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
Marriage isn’t just the union of two people; it’s the careful blending of lives, families, histories, and expectations. When you say “I do,” you’re not just committing to your spouse; you’re stepping into a complex web of relationships that come bundled with your partner. Your marriage is seen by few, but felt by one — and that one is you. This phrase captures a truth that is often overlooked: most people barely glimpse the realities of your marriage. They see the smile at the dinner table or the hand you hold during a holiday gathering. But they don’t see the late-night talks,...

4000 Again
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
As parents, the word again often feels like the soundtrack of our daily lives. We say it, sometimes shout it, and frequently whisper it, all in the effort to guide our kids toward better choices, safer habits, or just basic cooperation. I'm sure you remember some of these. “Brush your teeth again.” “Please clean up your toys again.” “I asked you again to do your homework.” Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

God is not some far-off deity surveying humanity from a lofty throne. He is with us, every moment, every breath. And that means even when life gets busy, messy, or downright frightening, His presence does not vanish.
Look at the story of Simon Peter and the fishermen caught in a storm (Matthew 14:22-33). The storm raged, the waves crashed, and fear gripped their hearts. Into the chaos, Jesus approached—walking on water, defying the very forces that threatened to consume them.
Matthew 14:28-33
28 “Lord, if it’s you,” Peter replied, “tell me to come to you on the water.”
29 “Come,” he said.
Then Peter got down out of the boat, walked on the water and came toward Jesus. 30 But when he saw the wind, he was afraid and, beginning to sink, cried out, “Lord, save me!”
31 Immediately Jesus reached out his hand and caught him. “You of little faith,” he said, “why did you doubt?”
32 And when they climbed into the boat, the wind died down. 33 Then those who were in the boat worshiped him, saying, “Truly you are the Son of God.”
Peter stepped out of the boat, walking toward Jesus, but when doubt crept in, he began to sink. Jesus reached out and caught him immediately.
This is a beautiful and vivid picture of how God is with us in the storms of life. When fear threatens, when we feel like we’re sinking under pressure, Jesus is there—not distant or untouchable—but right beside us, ready to catch us if we call out.
The K.I.S.S. ~ God is with us!
Now, you might think that this only happens in the Bible. That's not true.
God’s nearness isn’t dependent on how much we know or even how strong our faith is. It’s about who He is.
We are His, and He has made Himself touchable in ways we often overlook.
1 Corinthians 6:19-20 says, "When Jesus rose from the grave, He didn’t vanish into the heavens only to be seen from afar. Instead, He gave us the Holy Spirit, who resides within us. Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your bodies."
That means God’s presence is not just around us; it’s in us.
You are never alone, even when your circumstances shout otherwise. God sees you—His child, His creation—and that makes you His priority always.
So call out to Him. Cry out to Him. Reach out with your heart and know that God is more touchable than you can imagine. He is with you in every storm, every trial, and every triumph.
Untouchable? No. He is unshakeably near—ready to hold you, steady you, and empower you through life's journey. God's got you always!
"Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"
