The next morning Jacob got up very early. He took the stone he had rested his head against, and he set it upright as a memorial pillar. Then he poured olive oil over it. He named that place Bethel (which means “house of God”), although it was previously called Luz. Then Jacob made this vow: “If God will indeed be with me and protect me on this journey, and if he will provide me with food and clothing, and if I return safely to my father’s home, then the LORD will certainly be my God. And this memorial pillar I have set up will become a place for worshiping God, and I will present to God a tenth of everything he gives me.”

Trust, Endurance, Community, and Rest are all hard principles to maintain in a culture that pushes us to be independent and self-sufficient. This devotional will walk you through each of these biblical principles and show you how you can cultivate trust in life, throughout your faith journey.
Embark on a 5-day journey with Kayleon Dortch-Elliott to cultivate awareness of God's presence in every season of life. Discover what it means to be truly aware, identify the barriers to awareness, and learn to recognize the sacred even in the seasons you think you’re merely surviving.
God is with us all the time, but we are only keenly aware of God some of the time. This is normal for humans, of course, but we would all benefit by learning to pause and relax into God's presence. This 5-day reading plan looks at people in the Old Testament and New Testament who didn't notice God, even when God was right next to them. It also offers some practical ways to relax into God's presence each day so we can notice God more, either when we are stressed or just going about our day.
