advice — Daily Devotion — Kristen Alexis Cave

If the most successful companies and organizations see the importance of having a board of directors, what would it look like for us to recognize that same importance in our individual lives? I’ve been thinking a lot about this concept recently, especially as I wrote my new devotional, “For My Single Friend” because it was in my mid-twenties, right in the middle of my singleness journey, that I really started to take “building my board” seriously. I wouldn’t have called it that at the time, but that’s what I began to do. And that process has continued to grow and evolve even now that I’m just starting off my thirties.

Don’t Underestimate The Power Of Empathy

Yesterday as I was scrolling through Instagram, I came across a post by one of my favorite influencers where she shared that she had miscarried over the weekend. A few minutes later, I watched her Instagram stories where she shared more about what had happened. While this story was absolutely heartbreaking, there was one detail that made my heart sink with sadness and disappointment.

How Can The Bible Help You?

We have access to the most helpful tool we could ever have in this life. God’s Word has a lot to offer us when we need guidance and direction. The Bible has so much to say about relationships, finances, conflict management, work, anxiety, trust, forgiveness, purpose, identity, and so many other things. It’s the best place to go when you need advice on how to live the life God has marked out for you. So if you have access to that, why wouldn’t you use it?
