Sometimes the most spiritual thing you can do is eat something and go back to sleep.
I know that might not sound like the devotional insight you were expecting. Not every hard season requires more striving, more praying, more pushing through. Sometimes what your soul actually needs is what God prescribed for Elijah at his lowest point in 1 Kings 19: bread, sleep, and the gentlest voice saying get up and eat.
God is not disappointed in your exhaustion.
He is tender toward it.
Rest is not the absence of faith. Sometimes it is exactly what He is asking of you. And on the other side of the rest, He will still be there with everything you need for the next step. 💛
