Summary
Feeling overwhelmed by your to-do list? Feeling anxious about all the things on your plate? When was the last time you prayed? 📅 In this clip from Q&A, we explore how to bring your busy life to the Lord, asking Him what to keep and what to detach from. By prioritizing prayer over productivity, we can remember that it's God who gives us our worth, not how much we get done.

| 0:19.9 | I'm Beth. I'm Steph. We're talking about when life gets busy. I think the busyness is very identity driven. I think that that it's difficult, particularly for women, to feel like they are wanted and have value if they're not contributing in some way. |
