Several years ago my wife suspected that I have ADHD. Though I initially resisted the idea, I eventually had myself tested. And the doctor diagnosed me with ADHD. That revelation answered so many things about my behavior. Why I couldn’t sit in my office for any period of time, why my manager complained I easily “lost focus,” why I felt like such an underachiever when I knew I could do better.
This blog is a Christian devotional that is designed to encourage and challenge those of us with ADHD. I want to share with what I’ve learned, and am learning, on this journey. Each devotional is short and to the point, the way we folks with ADHD like it.

At 52, i am only now discovering that I have ADD. No focus problems, no impulsivity, but oh, the time management and procrastination! The constant disorganization, chaotic-like feeling, much confusion and feeling overwhelmed. Reading “The Disorganized Mind” was a gift. Even more so, “ADD-Friendly Organizing”. It was as if someone had been following me around my whole life. So, regardless of what you want to call it, maybe these strategies will work. Maybe some progress can be made. My husband and son are both ADD . . . . i have never been in “that boat.” But alas! Thanks for your encouragement in Christ. He made us all…. “He is mindful of our frame, and knows that we are but dust.” And yet, He has jobs and plans for each of us and we are gifted uniquely by Him. So! I agree . . . none of this can be excuses, but we can depend on Him to give us “everything pertaining to life and godliness.” (Thanks for being part of the everything.) Let’s pray that we can take those things that He is teaching and incorporate and actually change how we function.
Thanks for your encouragement an for your insightful comment.
Thank you, for wiring this blog. I struggle everyday with adult ADHD; the sick feeling of underachievement, procrastination, perfectionism, everything is just wrong with my brain. I love love God but can’t seem to shake off the sadness that comes with it. I don’t know if I ever will because I’ve gotten disappointed so many times. I look back at some of the great stuff God has done but can’t figure out how to balance the two. Anyway…I pray everyday for a better feeling of it all. Thank you.
Thank you so much for the comment and encouragement. When you’re discouraged, remember 2 Corinthians 12:9 “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.”
