When Distraction Becomes Our Comfort: What Are We Reaching For?

Connect with me, by sending a text! I’m so excited to finally be back with you, and I’m starting this season with a conversation that is incredibly personal to me. Lately, I’ve been having to navigate distraction in a very real way. I’ve found myself reaching for social media when I’m lonely, anxious, overwhelmed, bored, or simply don’t want to sit with what I’m feeling. And the more I prayed about it, the more I realized that this wasn’t just about having a phone in my hand, it was about what I was choosing to run to for comfort. So in this episode, we’re talking about how to give God glory even when we are navigating distraction. We’ll look at the stories of Peter, David, Samson, Mary and Martha, and Nehemiah, and what their lives can teach us about losing focus, recognizing distraction, and intentionally fixing our eyes back on Jesus. Because the goal isn’t to live a life where we never get distracted. The goal is to recognize when we’ve wandered, turn our hearts back toward God, and learn to reach for Him first. So friends, take a breath, settle in, and let’s ask ourselves a simple but important question: What are we reaching for?
