30-Days to Habit Change [FEBRUARY 2020]
Last year, I started something new…
I would pick ONE HABIT that I wanted to improve (either do more or do less of) and focus on that for one entire month. 30 days. That’s it.
While I didn’t quite commit to doing this every month, I would say that I focused on a new monthly habit 8 out of the 12 months. Some of the ones I focused on…
>> A green smoothie for breakfast
>> Drinking 3-liters of water
>> Giving up sweets (this went hand-in-hand with the Lenten season)
>> Not pressing snooze
But, there was ONE habit that really had a lasting impact after those 30 days…⠀
Starting my day with a devotional every morning.
A little backstory...
I was raised in a Christian home (Lutheran, to be exact).
I went to Lutheran school from Kindergarten through 8th grade.
Our family was VERY involved in the church.
My brother went on to become a teacher + music minister for Lutheran schools and churches.
My kids go to Lutheran preschool.
We are regular church goers and send our kids to Sunday School every Sunday.
But, I knew SOMETHING was missing in all that...
A RELATIONSHIP with God.
I've been feeling this pull on my heart that I needed to do more, and I knew that I wanted to understand + apply Biblical teaching to my personal life. But, I didn't know how to pray, I didn't know how to listen to what God was telling me to do. I kept asking for signs and hoping something would happen.
But, that relationship with Him was missing.
For the last 6 months, the first thing I do in the morning is a 5-minute devotional with the YouVersion Bible app.
And it's transformed not only my relationship with God, but I feel so much stronger in my faith that it's transformed my life.
Friend, I want that for you too! If you're feeling that pull to be doing more to work on your faith + on your relationship with God, I want to invite you to join me in a February accountability group focused on a 5-minute daily devotional!
I want to personally invite YOU to join me starting February 1 for a 30 day devotional series in the YouVersion Bible App. We’ll be reading the devotional “30 Days to Greater Faith” by Christine Caine. What better way to start a new habit than one that will bring you closer to God?!
