But lately I've been sitting with smaller prayers—prayers for patience while I'm doing the dishes, prayers for kindness when I'm frustrated, prayers for presence when I'm with someone I love.

And something has shifted. The small moments feel holy now. The ordinary day feels connected to something bigger. I'm not waiting for my life to start. I'm not waiting for the big answer. I'm living right now, in this moment, with God present. 💫

I think what's best for me is to stop thinking of my faith as a tool for solving my future and start thinking of it as a way to actually live my present. Each choice becomes a small prayer. Each conversation becomes a chance to bring love into the world. Each day becomes something I'm doing with God, not something I'm doing while waiting for God to show me what to do. 🌹

Everything changes when you realize you're already living your life right now.
