ABIDING - Day 11 (On Burnout)

Season #1

Scripture of the Day: 1 Kings 19:3–12
Series Theme: Abiding: Planted and Thriving in Busy Seasons

Welcome to Day 11 of the Abiding series on the Wake Up Loved podcast. Today’s quiet time is for anyone feeling the weight of exhaustion, burnout, or the pressure to keep going when you feel like giving up. We’re diving into 1 Kings 19, exploring the story of Elijah, a prophet who faced despair, burnout, and the need for restoration.

This episode is a reminder that God meets us in our exhaustion, providing exactly what we need: rest, nourishment, and clarity. Through Elijah’s story, we’ll uncover how to embrace God’s gentle whisper amidst the noise of life and learn how to take the next faithful step, even when we feel depleted.

If you’ve ever wondered how to find peace in the chaos or strength in the stillness, this episode is for you.
