Feed Your Faith When Life Gets Busy You get to the end of a long day, and realize you haven’t prayed once. Not to mention the Bible reading plan you set out to tackle at the beginning of the year could use a good dusting off… When life is too busy, your time and attention gets pulled in a hundred different directions. And then trying to feed your faith starts to feel like another thing on an endless list of impossible demands. We feel you. Because we find ourselves there, too. And no, we haven’t missed the irony that we work for an organization where it’s our job to encourage other people in their faith—just keepin’ it real. None of us are immune to the trap of busyness—to competing demands, and hurried lives. Ultimately, we know that our faith is what should fuel us to do the things we do. It should be what gives us strength. But in practice, we often try to do it all apart from God, and that’s when we feel dry and depleted. So here’s the thing: you need help, and so do we. Especially for those seasons when busyness doesn’t feel optional, but growing in your faith is vital. So we reached out to some practical faith experts—YOU—to get advice on how to feed our faith when life gets busy. Here’s what we found. Feed Your Faith in Snack-sized Bites If we had to summarize the best advice we got, it’d be something like this: feed your faith in snack-sized bites. By feeding our faith in small ways throughout the day, it works with the time we have, allows us to get creative with how we connect with God, and ultimately, it sets us up to grow in our faith consistently, even when life is too busy.
