Bible plans play an important role in my devotion routine. They help me dip into scripture and encourage me to work harder in my relationship with God. That being said, I've read some rockin' plans over the years on the Bible app. (It's literally called that.) So, I wanted to share my favorites with you. :) Here's Five Bible Plans That'll Kick Your Butt...

​*Note: You can read these on a desktop or with the app on your iPhone! :)
​

​Stop It! No More Worry by Tony Evans
​Duration: 7 days

​Don't let the name fool you, this plan is legit. It isn't your average, "Get Rid of Anxiety Now" bible plan. This plan talks about worry with a relatable and authentic approach. It dives into the kind of scripture that screams wake up call. 

​Favorite part of this plan: "God feeds the birds yet they have no eternal value to them. But you have so much value to Him that He gave His only son to purchase your salvation and redemption from hell."

​30 Days of Heartwork by Heartwork.tv
​Duration: 30 days

​When I started this plan, I was looking for major change. Something that would rock my world. Kill my selfishness. Change my heart and make me uncomfortable. If that's you, this is the plan for that!

​Each day, the devo is split into two sections: Heart// and Work//. The Heart// section includes a powerful message that guides you through evaluating your own heart and the change you can make. The Work// section is what includes the daily challenge. It can be anything from praying for something specific, to eating differently, to changing your normal sleeping arrangement. It will wreck your comfort zone. Prepare for that. However, you will walk out of that month with a notebook full of wisdom.

​Favorite part of this plan: It's different. It goes above and beyond to teach you how to live selflessly. 

​Getting Ready for Marriage by Jim Burns + Doug Fields
Duration: 7 days

​I like to prepare for things, whether or not they're years away. Plus, who doesn't wanna be a bomb wife? Or husband? It's fun to learn and this plan isn't SUPER specific. (Meaning I would totes read it single and get something out of it.

Favorite part of this plan: I feel like when I get super close to someone I'm dating, I have the desire to say anything I'm thinking. However, that can turn into a dangerous habit. My favorite line in this plan, "A better answer is to not say everything you are thinking."
​

​Sun Stand Still by Steven Furtick
​Duration: 5 days

​If you guys don't know, this guy is the pastor for Elevation Church. He's super funny, passionate, and driven to make a difference. If you haven't watched Elevation, please do. It will change your life dude. I cried the first couple sermons I watched lol.

​This plan will make you think, and think, and think. As I'm writing this, I'm considering starting this plan again today lol. :) THAT GOOD GUYS. I can't even summarize the material in this plan. It's mind-blowing and covers a multitude of topics.

Favorite part of this plan: This line.. "God is perfectly willing to perform the impossible in our everyday lives. If we have the audacity to ask."

​C.S. Lewis & the Call to Create by Called to Create
Duration: 4 days

​I use to be a writing major, so this plan immediately caught my eye. It explores the term "creative" from a biblical standpoint and shows us how to commit our work (career) to God. Then uses C.S. Lewis's life story as an example for how we should dedicate our talents to serving His kingdom. I would definitely recommend this plan if you are tired or lost in your career lately.

 Favorite part in this plan: "Lewis's faith didn't change his work. It changed his relation to his work."

​Ah! I hope you enjoyed this post. Email me if you have a faith/travel related post you want to see. :) Also, if you've read a killer plan I didn't mention, drop it below! I'm always looking for ones to read. I'll take book suggestions too. :) I need to get reading again.

I like to pack light. Actually, let me rephrase that. I'm learning to pack lighter, lol. No one wants to be that homie who packs their whole bedroom and never hears the end of it. That's why I wrote this. So you can be that person whose packing up for the road trip and hears, "That's all you brought?" It will feel like magic and you will look like the cool, low maintenance friend. (Lol does anyone else have this thought process?) Either way, here's eight Walmart travel items you need to buy today...

​​
​1. Crème Brulee Vaseline $1.87
I don't know about you, but I use Vaseline as chap stick. It's much cheaper and I can buy a giant tub that lasts me for over a year. However, when I travel, I hate bringing that big ol' tub. That's where this lil baby comes in. I say Crème Brulee, because that's the best kind. Who doesn't want dessert on their lips? 

​*Tip: Buy a big tub for yourself if you don't have one. That way, when the mini runs out, you can just scoop some into the old container. 

​2. Dr. Fresh Flossers $1.00
​I don't find flossing fun, but these cute lil guys are my new best friend. Imagine a flossing life without cutting off your finger circulation, lol. Ordinary floss might be a tad cheaper, but what are you more likely to use? 60 picks come in one pack. I may never buy real floss again. (Mhm and by that I mean dig one out of the closet from all my past dentist appointments lol) 

​*Tip: Buy this brand, it's mint waxed and has a toothpick on the end.

​*Travel perk: These babies will help cut your flossing time in half. Less time getting ready and more time to enjoy your trip!

​3. Equate's Grab-N-Go Bag $2.94
This is the most expensive item on the list, can you believe it?! Lol, this bag was a lifesaver on my spring break trip. I doubt I'll ever bring my normal sized shampoo containers again. Four bottles come in each bag and there's stickers so you'll know what's what. They include two blank labels too, in case you need to make your own. I made a "face" sticker for my face wash.

​*Tip: The bag itself is the best part. It keeps anything from getting on the stuff in your suitcase.

​*Travel perk: The bag is re-sealable, so I took mine into the shower. It was so nice not to juggle four bottles in my hand on the way to the bathroom!

4. Dial Silk & Magnolia Body Wash $.97
​This stuff smells like my childhood and I love it. I've used the Spring Water kind too and it's refreshing. I like Dial because it actually feels like a soap on my skin. I've used plenty of body washes that leave me with stinging skin and it sucks. Try this stuff. It's cheap and I dig it.

​*Tip: This bottle will ALSO fit in your plastic bag from above. I fit five bottles in mine just fine and it was Gucci. What a win.

5. Equate Hand Sanitizer $.96
​If you hate washing your hands as much as I do, you need this. I was a little worried about trying this off brand, just because sanitizers are hit or miss. You know the kind that stay sticky and you feel like you're attracting more germs than killing? Yeah love those little devils. Anyway, I trust this brand. It ain't anything fancy, but it sure does the job.

​Travel perk: It's under 3.4 ounces, so perfect to take on the plane with ya!

​6. Gold Bold Lotion $.97
​This lotion is a killa. I always use it every time I put on sanitizer (because hey every sanitizer makes your hands dry). I use this stuff on my face after I shower too if I don't have my Vaseline lotion. Works like a charm.

​Travel perk: Saltwater can make my feet pretty dry. I like to throw this on them after I swim in the ocean!

​7. Toothbrush Holder $.97
I've spent the last 20 years wrapping my wet toothbrush in toilet paper to transport it lol. OR A PLASTIC BAG, don't judge me. (I've probably wasted like 100 bags now that I think about it.) I seriously just thought these holders were $5 LOL! Well, they aren't and everyone needs one.

​Travel perk: I have an issue with leaving my toothbrush places. (Among everything else I own lol) I feel like this bright pink container will definitely help with that.

​8. Q-tip Case $1.48
I use Q-tips for everything. Touching up my mascara. Removing nail polish. Cleaning my ears after taking out my earrings. This holder comes with 30 Q-tips ready to go and you can always fill it up when it goes empty. Normally I throw a few in a plastic bag and call it good. However, this case says let's get organized.

​Travel perk: Throw this in your purse or backpack and you won't have to worry about random germs sticking to the cotton!

The great thing about this list? It doesn't even hit $12. I feel like an expert traveler running around with these. Walmart is the best. Buying things for an upcoming trip doesn't have to be an investment, just be smart. :) I hope this was helpful!
