What happens when running on empty starts to feel normal?

Many of us are good at giving, helping, carrying, and getting things done. Receiving can be harder. Yet Psalm 23 reminds us that we have a Shepherd who leads, provides, and restores. We were never meant to carry life alone.

In Episode 2 of the Cultivating a Life You Love summer series, Larissa Traquair explores what it means to receive God’s care instead of continually trying to restore yourself through more effort.

You’ll discover why receiving is an act of faith, how Psalm 23 shifts our attention from what we need to accomplish to what the Shepherd does for us, and how creating space for His care can help restore a weary soul.

In this episode:

  •  Recognizing when exhaustion has become your normal 
  •  What Psalm 23 teaches us about God as Shepherd 
  •  Why receiving requires trust 
  •  Releasing what God never asked you to carry 
  •  Making room for God to lead, provide, and restore 
  •  A practical Habit of Hope to help you receive His care today 

Scripture: Psalm 23:1–3 ESV

Habit of Hope: Make space to receive. Pray: “Lord, You know what I need today. I trust You to restore my soul. Show me what that looks like today.”
