CranHill Family Minute

With Heidi Lloyd, Executive Assistant

Staying Anchored

"You will keep in perfect peace those whose minds are steadfast, because they trust in

you." – Isaiah 26:3 (NIV)

Summer can be one of the busiest times of the year—especially if you work in a place

that thrives during this season, like CranHill. Long hours, constant activity, and the

pressure to keep up can make it easy to let your faith routines slip and your focus

wander.

But God never takes a break from being present with you.

In the middle of the hustle, He invites you to stay anchored in Him. The key isn’t

escaping the busy—it’s learning to meet Him in it. Whether you're preparing for the next

rush, cleaning up after a long day, or grabbing five quiet minutes before your day starts,

God is right there. He is your source of peace, strength, and clarity.

Like a lighthouse steady through crashing waves, God’s presence can guide and calm

your heart when everything else feels chaotic. Keeping your focus on Him doesn’t

require hours—it starts with simple, honest moments of prayer and gratitude.

Where can you build in small pauses to reconnect with God during your workday?

What’s one verse or worship song you can carry in your heart this week?

Prayer:

Lord, in the business of this season, help me not to lose sight of You. Anchor my heart

in Your peace and remind me that even in the hardest days, You are near. Keep my

faith strong and my focus steady on You. Amen.

Fire Starter

"But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you."

Matthew 6:33 ESV

CranHill is devoted to being a ministry through which God is Transforming Lives into the Image of Christ through Youth Camps, Family Camping, Retreats, and Adventure Experiences.
