As a young woman in college, I find myself giving the same excuse to God on repeat: I'm too busy. But in all honesty, how many hours do you spend on your phone, tweeting and reading Facebook posts? Admit it, we have the time for God. However, what if I told you that there's an app to help you pray every day? These tools will equip you to make sure you give some of your time to God as school approaches. A healthy soul is a peaceful soul. Here are the 6 best resources for you, a woman of God, as you walk in faith with Christ.
6. The Bible App
This app allows you to take the Word of God wherever you go. As much as I love my 10-year-old pink teen Bible with highlights and scribbles everywhere, this app gives you features such as highlighting, commenting, bible plans, and devotionals. You can also choose from an array of translations, but please don't use the Message bible!
5. Life.Church
This goes along with the Bible app, and goes more in-depth with studies and plans adjusted for your needs. You can also listen to sermons dedicated to what you want to hear in case you miss a Sunday ;). Click here to download.
4. SoulScripts
This is a free website where you can sign up and receive weekly emails written by Jordan Lee, and are so well-spoken and relevant to recent topics. She also has a Facebook page which posts daily devotionals. Click here to follow her Facebook page and subscribe.
3. Pandora
I know... it's a little contradictory for a "Christian" app, but I always queue up Pandora while I'm getting ready in the morning for worship music (aka Kari Jobe Radio, Jon Foreman, Audrey Assad, etc..) and I always feel renewed to go out and conquer the world. Download here.
2. Abide
If I could endorse this app, I would. I LOVE Abide, and how easy it is to use. Every morning and before I go to bed, Abide gives a simple, two-minute devotional and prayer to ease you into an encouraged spirit.
1. She Reads Truth
This is a bible/devotional app specifically tailored for women of God. I absolutely adore the clean look of this app, and the plans they provide. They also have an array of lock screens for you to choose what verse you'd like to read every time you open your phone. Download here.
It's harder than ever to sacrifice ourselves to the fullness and glory of God. Use what God has provided you to seek Him, even for just five minutes. Don't compromise your faith for the sins technology can carry. Be blessed and know that God is always with you.
"Whatever you do, do it ALL for the glory of God." 1 Corinthians 10:31.
