Hey, thanks so much for joining us. Welcome to the Empower You devotional.

2
00:00:03.280 --> 00:00:08.560
What the heart is behind this devotional is to actually be able to help us draw closer to God.

3
00:00:08.560 --> 00:00:13.280
Now, this is in no way a substitution or a replacement of your current devotional,

4
00:00:13.280 --> 00:00:18.400
but in today's day and age, the word busy is probably written across every single person's

5
00:00:18.400 --> 00:00:22.000
life. I would even say maybe some people's foreheads with how they wear it.

6
00:00:22.000 --> 00:00:26.400
What we see is that when we take time to make sure we're doing a good job at our occupations,

7
00:00:26.400 --> 00:00:29.200
to make sure that we're doing a good job spending time with our family,

8
00:00:29.200 --> 00:00:33.360
to make sure we're doing a good job spending time pouring into ourselves and making sure we're

9
00:00:33.360 --> 00:00:37.840
rested and not stressed out, some important things fall through the cracks. And for most believers,

10
00:00:37.840 --> 00:00:42.720
that's the devotional life. And so what this Empower You devotional is, is an opportunity

11
00:00:42.720 --> 00:00:46.960
for you to maybe not miss one or two days in the word, but to be able to be something that is 10

12
00:00:46.960 --> 00:00:52.320
or 15 minutes to help you still dive into the word, to still hear what Jesus wants to say to you

13
00:00:52.320 --> 00:00:58.880
and to still spend time with him. So I hope it blesses you. I hope you use it as a tool

14
00:00:58.880 --> 00:01:06.320
to grow closer to Jesus. And I hope you know we're praying for you. Thank you.
