I used to think if I didn’t have 30 minutes, a journal, the perfect spot, and absolute silence, I couldn’t meet with God.

But some days, all I have is 5 mins before the next thing I have to take care of.

Some days I whisper, “Lord, I’m tired. When will it stop being chaotic?,” as I check on the oven or fold laundry.

And do you know what? That’s still holy.

Faith doesn’t always come by sitting around praying for hours. Sometimes it floats in like a feather—quiet, soft, and weightless. But it lands in exactly the right place to get you through the day.

If all you have time for today is a feather light prayer, offer it. If all you have is a verse on your phone while standing in line, read it. If all you can manage is to whisper His name—that’s enough.

Because God doesn’t measure the size of our offering. He listens for the sincerity of our heart.
