Why You Need To Stay Close To God's Word - Friday Faith Foundations The Robyn Graham Show - Success Without Social - Life And Business Growth Strategies For Christian Women podcast

You never know when you will be in a situation where God's word is necessary more than ever before.

There are myriad reasons you need to stay close to God's word. A situation I recently experienced confirmed this need. Undoubtedly, the Holy Spirit is needed and the word He breathed into life is critical for staying aligned with our faith.

The story that made me aware of the need to stay close to God's word

It all started with a podcast interview, one I'd forgotten about.

You know those days. Something was added to your calendar many moons ago and you had the best intentions of remembering it and doing the necessary preparation.

But then, at 12:10, your intuition reminds you to look at your calendar. And there it is, the thing you scheduled months ago peering at you, screaming be ready in 20. Oh shucks! A sense of panic rises but then you tell yourself no biggy, I've got this.

This was me Wednesday afternoon.

But when I logged onto the Zoom call, I didn't have it.

Oh, I thought I did. Until I admitted my mistake and unpreparedness and asked if there was anything I needed to know about the interview. Then the truth came out. The podcast that I assumed was about God and the Christian faith, which it was, was hosted by an agnostic/atheist.

The second the host said this, I thought oh no! Why didn't I look at my calendar earlier? I would have canceled. But then I quickly reframed that thought to, no, there is a reason I didn't look. God planted me here. He knew if I'd done my homework I wouldn't have held to my commitment. Thankfully, I've known for a long time that I need to stay close to God's word because it sure came in handy to calm my nerves and keep my stake in the ground so to speak.

I was in over my head. . . or was I?
