4126 You're Not Lost, You're Just Sightseeing
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
Life doesn’t come with a map. It twists and turns, throws detours at us, and sometimes drops us in places we never expected. This reality hits even harder when you’re raising kids—because now you’re not just navigating your own path; you’re guiding little explorers through their own confusing journeys. Overwhelm can take over, leaving you with questions: “Am I doing this right? Are we lost?” But the thing is that you’re not lost; you’re just sightseeing. When you’re sightseeing, you don’t panic because you’re off-course. You pause. You take in the landscape. You explore...

4125 It's Okay to Look Back
Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo
Looking back at your past is natural. It’s part of being human. We reflect on where we came from, what we’ve endured, and how we’ve grown. But there’s a line between glancing at your history and living inside it. Be careful how long you hang out with your past. Like Doris Roberts said, “It’s okay to look back, just don’t stare.” Some people get stuck in their past like it’s a favorite hangout spot—even a safe one. They replay old mistakes, clutch grudges, or drown in regrets. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at the . This isn’t...

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...
info_outlineWe all know that moment when a decision looms, and your mind starts racing with pros, cons, doubts, and second-guessing. Maybe you want permission or confirmation from the outside world. You seek signs, advice, or validation to justify what, deep down, you already know you should do. If this sounds familiar, then stop fumbling and go with your gut.
There’s something real and raw in that gut feeling. Some call it a divining rod, others name it the Holy Spirit, intuition, or inner compass.

No matter the label, that “gut” is a source of wisdom sharper than any spreadsheet or endless research.
Look back at your own history. Remember the times you had that gut sense about something — relationships, jobs, moves, or risks.
Now more often than not, that instinct was right, regardless of whether you acted on it. Your gut isn’t some whimsical guess. It’s the sum total of your experience, values, and yes, something deeper — a silent voice guiding you, God Himself.
The K.I.S.S. ~ Go with your gut!
Lean into what you believe God has laid out for you. This isn’t about reckless leaps but about trusting the divine design He built for you, a plan that won’t steer you wrong.
That said, going with your gut doesn’t guarantee that the road ahead will be easy or smooth. In fact, it might mean doubling down, doing the hard work, and pushing through resistance.
But here’s where courage kicks in: you’re worth the effort. What’s placed in your heart, what’s nudging in your gut — it won’t betray you.
Be alert to the subtle signs, the God winks life throws your way — little confirmations, unexpected doors opening, unexpected peace in chaos. These moments are your map, affirming your direction.
In the end, no one else can make the call for you. Your gut is your truth teller. When you tune in, decide boldly, and take A.I.M. — action ignites motivation.
"One step at a time leads to miles of greatness." ~ Kristianne Wargo
Go with your gut. It’s time you trusted what you and God already know.
"Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"
