Common Sense Prayers for Everyday Living Series: Household Chores Edition
By Cherry Hargrove
Life is full of ordinary tasks-washing dishes, folding laundry, cooking meals, or sweeping the floor. These chores may seem repetitive, but they can also become moments of gratitude, worship, and connection with God.
In this uplifting devotional-style book, Cherry Hargrove shows how prayer can transform daily routines into sacred encounters. Each chapter offers:
Real-life scenarios that connect faith to everyday tasks.
Scripture-based prayers to invite God into household work.
Reflections to inspire mindfulness and gratitude.
Book Club questions for group discussion or personal growth.
From washing dishes to tending the garden, this Household Chores Edition reminds readers that God is present in the simplest moments. Prayer is not limited to church pews or quiet devotions-it is woven into everyday living.
Perfect for individuals, families, or book clubs, this volume will encourage you to see chores not as burdens, but as opportunities to worship, give thanks, and rest in God's presence.
Common Sense Prayers for Everyday Living Volume 2 -Witty IdeasLife is filled with everyday moments that test our patience - spilled cereal, missing socks, long meetings, burnt dinners, road trip chaos, or holiday stress. Yet, in each of these ordinary places, God has promised us something extraordinary: witty ideas, divine strategies, and creative wisdom.
The Bible calls this "wisdom from above," and it is available to every believer who asks. These witty ideas are not reserved for inventors, CEOs, or scholars. They are for all of us - homemakers, parents, workers, and dreamers - right in the middle of our daily living.
Scriptures remind us that witty ideas are part of God's gift to His people:
"I wisdom dwell with prudence, and find out knowledge of witty inventions." - Proverbs 8:12 (KJV)
"If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you." - James 1:5 (NIV)
"Call to me and I will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know." - Jeremiah 33:3 (NIV)
"Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight." - Proverbs 3:5-6 (NIV)
"The plans of the diligent lead to profit as surely as haste leads to poverty." - Proverbs 21:5 (NIV)
These scriptures show us that God doesn't only move in big miracles - He also gives small witty ideas that make life lighter, bring joy into stressful situations, and remind us that He is with us even in laundry rooms, grocery aisles, board meetings, and bedtime routines.
This book was written with a light heart and much laughter. Every chapter shares relatable, humorous scenarios where God's wisdom shows up in practical ways - often in the middle of life's most ordinary or chaotic moments. Alongside each story are scriptures, prayers, declarations, and discussion questions to help you not only laugh but also grow deeper in trusting God's creativity in your life.
My prayer is that as you read, you will begin to recognize God whispering witty ideas into your own everyday life. May you discover that He cares about your kitchen as much as your calling, your chores as much as your church work, and your laughter as much as your prayers.
Because truly, God is a Father who loves to give His children witty ideas.
