Hit Pause. Set a 5 minute timer.
Reflect on these words from Psalm 18:16-19:
He reached down from on high, he took me; he drew me out of mighty waters. He delivered me from my strong enemy, and from those who hated me; for they were too mighty for me. They confronted me in the day of my calamity; but the Lord was my support. He brought me out into a broad place; he delivered me, because he delighted in me.
A Moment of Prayer
Holy God, you are foundation of my life and my deliverer from my sin. I place my full trust in You. Help me as I go through my day, so that I know that You give me strength. I give you thanks for a spacious place where I can find room to breathe. Praise be to You, amen.
