Dear God, grant me the wisdom to slow down, the grace to cherish the ordinary moments, and the courage to live with purpose, love, and joy. Help me to see my worth not in my work, but in the love I give and receive. Amen.

If you want to meditate every night before bed but end up doing it for only five nights, you can decide that this counts as a win. “It’s so you can forgive yourself when something inevitably does come up and go wrong, as opposed to treating that as a disaster,” says Milkman.

Follows a simple five-step format:
I. Become aware of God’s presence.
Review the events of the day, asking God to bring clarity to his presence.
II. Review the day with gratitude.
Walk through your day with God, focusing on the gifts, joys, and delights.
III. Pay attention to your emotions.
What feelings did you experience today; what is God saying through them? When today did you feel far from God? When did you feel close to God?
IV. Choose one feature from the day and pray from it.
Ask God to point you to something He finds important in your day, and pray from it.
V. Look toward tomorrow.
What feelings come up when you consider tomorrow? Seek God’s guidance.
By implementing spiritual discipline and a reflective practice like this, you can sift through the day’s events, lift up cumbersome or stressful things to God, and grow in intimacy with the Holy Spirit. When intentionally resetting after a day of active accumulation, we gain access to a meaningful finishing to our day.
Fortunately, there are a few different ways you can protect yourself to avoid finding yourself in this situation. You can:
Carefully document every detail of the rental transaction, including the time you pick up the rental vehicle, the car’s condition and the time of return.
Take photos and videos of the car before you drive it off the lot and when you return it — along with the location of the return. Make sure they’re time-stamped.
Save all of your rental car documents and read them carefully.
Take notes of everyone that you talk to, especially if you become involved in a dispute.
Try to return the vehicle to an in-person agent when possible so you can get written confirmation of the return.
Research rental car companies to make sure they don’t have a bad reputation for customer service.
By following these steps, you’ll hopefully have no mess to untangle when you arrive home.
Stick with me here! I know two minutes doesn’t sound like a lot (because it isn’t!), but there are actually a lot of little things you can do around your home in about that time. Don’t believe me? Here’s a list of some of the tasks that you can do in under two minutes.
Not so bad, right? Today, your Cure assignment is to choose one of the above tasks (or a two-minute task of your own!) and complete it. My best advice here is to not worry about what’s most important in your home — choose instead a task that is easy, so you can check it off and be done.
