Ep 168 // How to Stay Close to God in Busy Seasons Without Adding More to Your Plate

How You Can Stay Close to God in Busy Seasons (Without Adding More to Your Plate) Do you ever feel like your life is so full that your faith is getting pushed to the side? As a busy working mom, it’s easy to believe that staying close to God requires more time, more quiet, and more consistency than you actually have. In today’s episode, I’m encouraging you with this truth: you can stay close to God in busy seasons — even when your schedule feels overwhelming and your days are packed. Spiritual growth doesn’t have to depend on perfect routines or long devotional time. Instead, faith can take root through simple, sustainable rhythms that fit into your real life. You’ll learn how to connect with God throughout your day through small, meaningful moments—without adding more to your plate or feeling like you’re falling behind spiritually. If you’ve been craving peace, encouragement, and a more grace-filled approach to growing in faith as a working mom, this episode is for you. In This Episode, You’ll Learn: Why faith doesn’t require an “ideal schedule” to grow How to release all-or-nothing thinking about spiritual growth Simple daily rhythms that help you stay close to God in busy seasons How to invite God into transitions throughout your day Why small, faithful moments matter more than spiritual perfection Encouragement for overwhelmed working moms who want to grow in faith Simple Faith Rhythms Mentioned: A whispered prayer during carpool or before walking into work Returning to the same Bible verse when stress rises A quick surrender moment: “Lord, I need Your wisdom right now” Inviting God into transitions (work → home, errands → family time) Letting go of comparison and embracing your season Encouragement for the Working Mom Who Feels Overwhelmed: God is not waiting for you to get it all together before He meets with you. He is present with you in the ordinary moments, the rushed moments, and the in-between spaces. You don’t need more time to grow in faith—you just need small moments of turning your heart toward Him.
