Redacted

Adulting involves taking responsibility

redact (verb) – to edit text for publication;
to censor or obscure (part of a text) for legal or security purposes

Honestly, the term “redacted” kinda freaked me out. Even after asking a colleague, I didn’t fully comprehend what it meant until I looked it up.

Then I began to understand how the blood of Jesus covers my sin so that it’s no longer seen by other parties.

It may historically be part of the document (my past) – but it cannot be seen. 

And in that case, it cannot be held against me. Hallelujah – what GOOD NEWS!

Now to apply this same concept when forgiving others…we have our work cut out for us, don’t we? 

But we have a Helper with power, so we’re not alone as we walk this journey. MORE good news!

Blessings, Kayren

“Hide thy face from my sins, and blot out all mine iniquities.”

Here’s a gift with a purpose: Today, I Pray…

Today, I Pray...Simple Prompts to Put Away Procrastinated Prayer

These are definitely praying times, wouldn’t you agree?

Sooo much is going on in the world these days – particularly on college campuses – that it can weigh down the heart. Within the past several days, I’ve reached out to my own children just to make sure they were safe in the midst of turbulence occurring near or at their respective schools.

The reason I asked if you’ve put off prayer lately is because it’s a challenge I find myself coming back to – time and again. #TransparentTruth

Sometimes it’s hard to get started with prayer. Or shut out the distractions. Or carve out a moment away from the hustle, bustle, and grind of everyday life.

“Procrastinated prayer” doesn’t sound holy at all, but let’s be honest.

Real talk? I have put off prayer…on more occasions (and more recently) than I care to admit.

No judgment here ‘cuz I fully believe that people who live in glass houses shouldn’t throw stones! #JudgmentFreeZone

How do we get outta the rut of carrying the weight of the world on our shoulders (which we’re not built for, by the way)? How do we get over the hump of praying one day, skipping a couple of days, then showing up in God’s presence after we’ve gotten even more weary and worn down? Help is here.

My friend, if you’ve ever felt like you needed a conversation starter with your Creator, be encouraged. I’m offering you a tool I created and curated to help us get back on track.

Today, I Pray…Simple Prompts to Put Away Procrastinated Prayer

“If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray,

and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven,

and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.”

1Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us,

Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.”

(Hebrews 12:1-2)

And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he said unto me, Write: for these words are true and faithful.

And he said unto me, It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely.”
