Are you struggling with low energy and lack of rest due to chronic stress?

In this episode, I share how time alone with God can become a true place of rest — where He restores your energy, renews your mind, and softens your heart. Through biblical encouragement from the story of Mary and Martha (Luke 10) and passages like Psalm 23 and John 15, you’ll discover that rest isn’t just about slowing down… it’s about being filled up by God’s presence.

I unpack three blessings that flow from spending quiet, intentional time with God: 1. Restoration – How God replenishes your strength and courage when you’re weary. 2. Perspective – How His Word shifts your focus from scarcity to gratitude and peace. 3. Emotional Connection – How time alone with Him keeps your heart soft, grounded, and full of love for others.
