The #1 reason you should spend time with God today

from The Dwell With Christ Podcast · host Chrys Jones

Stop being your own harshest critic. We often feel like if we can't spend an entire hour in deep study, our devotional time doesn't "count." But what if five minutes is all it takes for Christ to speak to you?In this video, I’m sharing the number one reason you should start a devotional rhythm today. I open up about my own struggles with ADHD and "all or nothing" thinking, and how a short time in Luke 17 and Tim Chester’s Enjoying Jesus reminded me of something life-changing: Jesus has compassion on you.It’s not about your performance; it’s about His presence. Whether you have five minutes or an hour, God wants to meet you in His Word.Key TakeawaysThe Power of Five Minutes: Why "no minutes" is the only wrong amount of time.Compassion Over Performance: Learning to see yourself the way Jesus sees you.Practical Tools: Using resources like Enjoying Jesus or the Puritans to fuel your prayer life.Overcoming Distraction: Real talk on navigating ADHD and phone distractions to find a rhythm.Resources MentionedEnjoying Jesus by Tim ChesterScripture: Luke 17 & James 2If this encouraged you, please hit the like button and leave a comment—it helps this message reach more people who might be struggling today.Want to dive deeper?Check out my video on Bible Study Tips or learn how to get addicted to the Bible again using the links above.Grace and peace!#Devotional #ChristianLiving #BibleStudy #MentalHealth #Faith
