The ByGod course

Arrive where you are.
Feel the chair or the ground beneath you. Let your breathing stay easy. You can take a few breaths, or simply notice the room around you before you read.
Stay with one line of Scripture.
“Come to me, all you who labor and are heavily burdened, and I will give you rest.”
Jesus speaks to people who are already carrying something. Begin with what is actually here today: a feeling, a question, a hope, or a task still on your mind. Give it a name if you can. Read the invitation again slowly and leave a little time after the last word.
Bring what is on your heart.
God, here I am. You know the parts of this day I can name and the parts I can’t yet put into words. Meet me here. Help me receive your care and take one small step with you today. Amen.
Take something into your day.
What is one thing I want to bring to God today?
Choose one ordinary moment today, such as before you open your messages, to pause and say, “God, here I am.”
