Putting God first isn’t about being “more spiritual” or getting it right. It’s about intentionally making space for Him in the life you’re already living.

In your thoughts.
In your everyday moments.
In your choices.
In the way you respond.

It’s not about doing more for God. It’s about inviting Him into more of you.

God doesn’t need performance. He desires connection with you.

Maybe today, putting God first looks like a quiet pause, becoming aware of Him and His presence, right where you are.

What do you sense Him saying to you today?

Proverbs 3:6 “In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths.”

You’ve probably heard it said: ‘Put God first’.
But have you ever wondered, what does that practically look like in everyday life?

It’s more than just a nice idea… it’s a daily invitation.
A choice to move away from autopilot and live with intention.

Over a series of posts, I’d love to explore the the practical how, of putting God first.
Not pressure.
Not perfection.
Just presence.

So let me ask you, what does “putting God first” mean to you personally?

Matthew 6:33 “But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.”

For today, maybe putting God first doesn’t look (on the outside) like a big spiritual moment, perhaps it’s simply becoming aware of Him in the moment you’re already in ❤
Looking forward to hearing your thoughts friends 🥰

This week’s readings draw us into themes of wisdom, revelation, and holiness, not as distant ideas, but as something lived and practiced in real, everyday ways.

We see wisdom in the counsel of Jethro, reminding us that even leaders need guidance, and that carrying everything alone was never God’s design. Wisdom shows up not just in great insight, but in humble listening, shared responsibility, and knowing our limits.

We see revelation as God’s presence descends in awe and majesty, unmistakable, holy, and weighty. Yet even here, God is not distant. He reveals Himself because He desires relationship, not fear-filled separation.

And we see holiness not as a checklist to complete, but as a way of being shaped. The call isn’t only to obey outwardly, but to allow God’s ways to take root within us, shaping how we think, respond, and live, moment by moment.

It’s easy to reduce faith to rules or right behaviour. But these passages invite us deeper. God isn’t only concerned with what we do, He’s inviting us into a way of life that reflects His heart, not just in the big, defining moments, but in the small, ordinary ones too.

So, this week, perhaps the invitation is to slow down and notice.

Where do we need wisdom right now and are we open to receiving it, even when it comes through others?

How is God revealing Himself, not just in dramatic ways, but in quiet, everyday moments?

Are we simply following God’s ways, or allowing ourselves to be gently formed into the people He is calling us to become?

Blessings friends 💛

Remember: Faith isn’t about how much you have, but Who it’s placed in.

When your faith feels small, let His strength be your certainty 🫶

This week’s readings sit in the space between fear and faith, between our very human limits and God’s steady provision.

The journey of deliverance continues, but we’re reminded again that freedom isn’t just about leaving something behind. It’s about learning to trust the One who leads us forward. Not only looking to the road ahead, but moment by moment, often before we can see where the path is going.

There’s a familiar pattern here……..God makes a way where there seems to be no way, the sea parts, enemies fall away, provision appears day by day, and still, fear lingers. Doubt creeps back in.

Not because God has failed… but because trust doesn’t automatically follow miracles.....

Faith is a journey
Built.
Learned.
Bit by bit.
Daily.

Often in the in-between moments where certainty feels just out of reach.
And if we’re honest, this isn’t just their story.

How often do we long for freedom, yet hesitate when the path forward requires trust?

How often do we ask for provision, then quietly wonder if God will really come through this time?

These passages gently call us back to remembrance.

God is faithful.

He goes before us.

He provides, sometimes in ways we don’t immediately recognise.

So, this week, perhaps the invitation isn’t to have more faith… but to notice where we’re being asked to trust again.

Where might fear be holding us back?
What provision might we be overlooking?
And how can we respond, not just with gratitude for what God has done, but with a quiet, abiding trust that carries us forward?

Blessings friends 💛

Sometimes fear shouts louder than faith, but it only takes one step toward God to break its power.

Faith isn’t the absence of fear… it’s choosing to walk in His direction anyway.

Even a small step with Jesus is stronger than a thousand steps without Him.

This week’s Torah readings feel like an invitation to pause and notice what God is doing.

There’s a clear thread of moving forward, stepping out of what’s familiar, trusting God’s provision, and walking into the freedom He’s been leading His people toward all along.

These passages feel weighty… not in a heavy way, but in a holy way.

Because deliverance isn’t just about leaving what was, it’s learning to stand in the new, to anchor ourselves in truth, and to walk with God in freedom.

And woven through it all is remembrance.
Not ritual for ritual’s sake… but real remembrance. The kind that turns into gratitude. The kind that brings us back to the table — to communion — with a soft heart and open hands.

There’s also a humbling reminder here:
we can forget.
We can slip back into old patterns.
We can resist change, even when it’s for our good.

But God is steady.
His mercy doesn’t shift.
He doesn’t just call us out, He leads, provides, and sustains.

So this week, I’m sitting with these questions:
Where is God asking me to take the next step?
What do I need to release to walk freely?
And how can I honour what He’s already delivered me from, in my everyday life?

This week’s Torah portion, Va’era (“And I Appeared”), invites us into a profound exploration of God’s steadfast faithfulness and His covenantal love.

It reminds us of His promise to redeem and deliver, even amidst moments of doubt and hardship. Through the unfolding of God’s power in the plagues of Egypt, we witness His authority over creation and His commitment to His people.

Reflecting on these themes, we are called to trust in God’s plans and timing, even when the path seems unclear. Paired with the prophetic visions in Ezekiel and the exploration of God’s mercy in Romans, this reading emphasises God’s sovereign justice and unrelenting grace.

It’s a call to align our hearts with faith, knowing that His purposes are always for restoration and freedom.

Is there an area in your life where God is calling you to trust in His unwavering promises and step forward in faith?

I want to encourage you today that His plan for redemption and restoration is already at work in your life

This week’s Torah readings, “Shemot” (“Names”), center on the beginnings of Israel’s journey from oppression to freedom, as God’s faithfulness to His covenant begins to unfold in powerful ways.

The readings remind us of God’s unwavering presence in times of suffering and His ability to raise up leaders, like Moses, to guide His people toward redemption.

Through these passages, we see the call to trust in God’s promises even when circumstances seem bleak, and the assurance that His purposes are always at work.

They encourage us to reflect on how God might be calling us to step into His plans with faith and courage.

How might you respond to His call this week?

This week’s Torah readings, “VaYechi” (“And He Lived”), invite us to reflect on the profound themes of legacy, faith, and hope that transcends generations.

Jacob’s final blessings over his family remind us of the sacred responsibility we have to speak life and purpose into those who come after us.

David’s charge to Solomon encourages steadfastness in walking with God, while 1 Peter draws our hearts to the living hope we hold in Christ, a hope that sustains us through every trial.

As we consider these passages, we are prompted to ask: How are we living out our faith today in a way that leaves a lasting mark of love, truth, and hope for those who follow
