4150 Stop Going Back
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
Have you ever made a decision, felt good about it for a moment, and then spent the next three days replaying it in your mind like a movie you can't turn off? You made the call. You weighed your options. You moved. And then — almost out of nowhere — the doubt crept in. Did I really think that through? What if I'm wrong? Maybe I should have waited. Stop going back! When we make a decision and clarity stalls, something uncomfortable starts to bubble up. It's the fear of being stuck. Not stuck because the decision was wrong, but stuck because we won't let go of it long enough to see where...

4149 Overflow with Hope
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
When you feel like all you're doing is running away from or toward all the things, it's hard to find joy and peace in life. You can get down and out about your circumstances, and all hope feels lost. But as Paul says in Romans 15:13, "May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit." Have you ever had one of those seasons where it feels like you're just running? Running toward the next thing on your list. Running away from the thing you don't want to face. Running in circles because you're not even sure...

4148 Look For Something To Work With
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
There's a moment in every marriage where you have to make a choice. You can stand there replaying every missed pass — every time your spouse came up short, every promise that got fumbled, every "we'll get to it" that never got to anything. Or you can do what the good ones do when the clock is running out. You can look for something to work with. Think about what you do now. Are you one who focuses on what doesn't work? Or are you willing to see what's possible? Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the . #RelationshipBuilders #CreateYourNow...

4147 Never Miss A Beat
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
Parenting is a never-ending, rhythmic song that plays over and over again. Some of the melodies are soothing to the heart — a sleepy child curled into your shoulder, a shared laugh over something silly at the dinner table, a "thank you, Mom" that comes out of nowhere and undoes you a little. But many more of the notes disrupt the nervous system. The 2 a.m. cries. The slammed doors of the teenage years. The days when you've given everything and it still doesn't feel like enough. However you hear it, you can't run from the most important responsibility in your life. Never miss a beat. Parents,...

4146 The Circle Isn't Wasted
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
There is a particular kind of tired that comes from walking in circles. You look up and realize you have passed this same tree, this same doubt, this same conversation with yourself, more times than you can count. You are moving; your legs ache to prove it, but the scenery refuses to change. And somewhere in that repetition, you hope that the circle isn't wasted. Because the real question, the one that keeps you up at night, is "does any of this matter if I don't even know where I am?" Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women?

4145 Just Because Life Takes An Unexpected Turn
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
Life doesn't always unfold the way we planned. One day the road looks clear, and the next, it curves somewhere we never saw coming. Unexpected turns can leave us feeling disappointed, confused, or uncertain about what is happening in our world and what God is doing in the middle of it. But here is what remains true even when everything else feels shaky: God is never surprised by the path ahead. Just because life takes an unexpected turn, God was not caught off guard, and He is not scrambling to figure out what to do next. "For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord in...

4144 Keep Walking When the Miles Feel Long
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
There is a particular kind of tired that has nothing to do with sleep. It's the tired that comes from carrying a dream for longer than you expected to carry it, from praying the same prayer for the hundredth time, from showing up to the same unfinished work day after day and wondering if today is any different from yesterday. If you're in that kind of tired right now, know that you are not stalled. You are in the middle. And the middle is where most of life actually happens. So keep walking when the miles feel long. We tend to picture progress as a straight, visible line — one clear step...

4143 You Didn't Come This Far to Come This Far
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
A journey lasts a lifetime. It requires a chosen mindset, intentional thoughts, and actions that put an exclamation point to movement. Not a comma. Not a question mark. An exclamation point—a declaration that you meant to keep going. As you travel the various paths set before you, let this settle into your spirit: you didn't come this far to come this far. You kept what was valuable in front of you. You pivoted where necessary. You became consistent as time moved on, even when consistency cost you something.

4142 Satisfy Us in the Morning
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
There's a moment right before your feet hit the floor. The alarm has gone off, the day is waiting, and for just a second you get to choose what you reach for first. Most of us reach for the phone. We reach for the to-do list already running in our heads. We reach for yesterday's leftover worry and let it become this morning's starting point. But there's another way to open your eyes. Psalm 90:14 says, "Satisfy us in the morning with your unfailing love, that we may sing for joy and be glad all our days." Moses wrote those words — the same Moses who spent forty years watching a...

4141 Keep Your Clothes On
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
Marriage was designed for intimacy. God built it that way on purpose — physical closeness is part of the gift. So why in the world would I tell you to keep your clothes on? Because there's a kind of intimacy that has to come first. And if you don't have it, the physical stuff becomes a bandage on a wound that keeps reopening. If you don't have the heart of your spouse, maybe you should keep your clothes on. Cordial Isn't the Same as Connected Think about how you actually interact with your spouse right now — not how you wish you did, not how you did on your wedding day. Right...
info_outlineWe live in a world that often feels like it’s spinning too fast, demanding more than we can give, pulling our attention in every direction but inward. It’s easy to get stuck reacting to the noise around us, to the pressures and expectations flying at us like relentless waves. But what if the real anchor isn’t out there—it’s right here, inside you? What if the difference between feeling overwhelmed and feeling whole is simply giving yourself a little bit of love?
This isn’t about knowing everything or having those perfect moments. It’s about the quiet practice of compassion toward yourself—the willingness to hold space for who you are right now, with all your flaws and all your scars.

When you offer yourself kindness and patience, something essential begins to shift. You stop being your harshest critic and start becoming your own ally. You begin to see that the person you are now and the one you’re becoming are not opposing forces but part of the same beautiful, evolving story.
Without that focus on self-love, life can feel like a relentless storm. Days blur into an exhausting cycle of “I’m tormenting,” “I’m being bombarded,” or “I just can’t get through the day.”
When you’re caught in that storm, the weight of it can make you lose sight of yourself—your true essence and the direction you’re meant to walk. But even in those darkest moments, you don’t need a revolutionary change. You just need a little bit of love.
The K.I.S.S. ~ A little bit of love!
That little bit might mean:
- Pausing when the world expects you to rush.
- Speaking to yourself with encouragement instead of judgment.
- Setting a boundary that protects your energy.
- Taking a simple moment to breathe deeply without guilt.
These small acts of care aren’t selfish—they are the foundation for clarifying who you are and where you’re headed.
When you nurture love for yourself, having compassion for yourself, it creates a ripple effect.
- Recognize the strengths that have carried you this far.
- Gain the courage to face challenges without losing yourself in the struggle.
- Tap into a well of resilience that doesn’t depend on external validation but on an honest connection with your own heart.
So if today feels heavy or your path feels uncertain, remember this: what you really need is just a little bit of love; a simple choice you can make right now. Give yourself that gift, and honor who you are today and who you are becoming tomorrow.
"Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"
