    In All Things, Seek God First

    How many of you wish you could hear more clearly from God? Every hand should be raised up high. The truth is, we all want God to speak to us, direct our steps, open doors, pour His favor out, and release breakthroughs in our lives. Sadly, most of us aren't doing our part. We've allowed distraction, overwhelm, and sometimes, just plain laziness to create a barrier. This is a serious problem. In order for the things in our life to have order and favor, we must be in alignment with the will of God. By carving out time to sit alone with God and His word, we will know more clearly what He is calling us to. We'll enjoy a greater sense of peace and fulfillment simply by drawing closer to Him and fixing our gaze on Him first. In all things, big and small, God should be the center. Check out today's episode as Barbara shares the power of leaning in and living a life devoted to the will and ways of our loving Father.  Visit my new expanded shop! https://hopeandgracegiftshop.etsy.com 10x your gratitude with this daily gratitude journal  Connect on Instagram @barbaratguillen Barbara Guillen is a teacher, writer, and Print on Demand business owner.

    All Things New: The Lessons Behind the Upgrades

    In this episode of Something to Bless, Barbara is sharing some of the new things in her life...including new lessons. From a new phone and car to a new wedding ring, Barbara talks about some of the lessons behind these upgrades. This episode reflects on hard lessons about spending, impulse decisions, and what it truly means to be intentional with purchases. Sometimes the most important upgrades aren’t the things we buy, but the mindset and wisdom we gain along the way. If you’ve ever looked back at your purchasing habits and wished you had done things differently, this episode offers encouragement and perspective. Because sometimes the “new” things in our lives come with the very lessons we needed all along.  Visit my new expanded shop! https://hopeandgracegiftshop.etsy.com 10x your gratitude with this daily gratitude journal  Connect on Instagram @barbaratguillen Barbara Guillen is a teacher, writer, and Print on Demand business owner.

    Worthy of Your Calling

    As sons and daughters of God, we are uniquely called and chosen to lead lives that are worthy of our callings. This means we have a responsibility to be set apart in all of our ways. The way we think, speak, and act. The way we treat others and even the efforts we make to remain united as one body in Christ. Is it easy? NO! Yet, we have the Spirit within us, always leading and guiding the way forward. If you want to claim the glorious future that God has for you, you must make every effort to remain united in the Spirit.

    The Power of Longsuffering: There is Purpose in the Waiting

    Waiting is hard. And yet, throughout life, we spend years in waiting seasons. Whether it be a relationship, job, finances, or a hundred other things, sometimes circumstances are not in our favor and there's not much we can do about it. The bible is clear that during these long seasons of waiting, we are to turn our focus to God as he prepares us for what's next.  In this episode, Barbara encourages us to press in as we learn to discern his direction for our lives. When we truly surrender all things and trust in God, he replaces our waiting-pains with contentment. That is the transformation we can all experience by trusting in the plans and timing of God.  Visit my new expanded shop! https://hopeandgracegiftshop.etsy.com 10x your gratitude with this daily gratitude journal  Connect on Instagram @barbaratguillen   Interested in learning more about my 6 week cohort Project Dream?

If you've wondered what your role as a Christian is during these times, you're not alone. Although we can't control everything, we do have a role to play and the bible is clear on what that is. From speaking up on truth, gathering with other believers, and staying away from sin ourselves, we can make a difference.  Tune in to today's episode and hear the scripture Barbara shares that will shed some light in a dark world.
