Devotional 20.1: Held in the Stillness: Trusting God When the Body Needs Rest

When the body feels tired, overwhelmed, or slow to recover, it can be tempting to see those signals as weakness or failure. In this devotional companion episode of Sipping on Wellness, Kerry invites listeners into a gentle, faith-centered reflection on rest, regulation, and trust. Rooted in Scripture and Christian apologetics, this episode explores how the body’s need for rest points us back to God’s design—not productivity, perfection, or pressure. Through reflection on God’s presence, biblical peace, and the wisdom woven into creation, this devotional offers encouragement for those walking through seasons of fatigue, stress, or slowing. This episode is an invitation to release striving, receive grace, and trust the God who holds us steady—even when we pause.
