Is there space between your load and your limit? If you're filling up your calendar constantly, what is your motivation? When you allow yourself to have margin in your life, you can be more present to the Lord and to those around you.
Check your heart and be honest about why you are leaving little to no margin in your life. Is it necessary? Would you and your loved ones benefit from you allowing space to rest?
Try incorporating new (slower) rhythms into your life: rest, creativity, community and work.
Practice Sabbath with those close to you - how can you encourage one another to spend time with God, away from work and in close community with other followers of Jesus? If you're not in a place where you can commit to an entire 24 hours, start by setting aside time for a device free meal, enjoying it with someone who with spend time talking about Jesus and His Word with you!

How do you know what and when true surrender happens?
What happens when your story isn't what you wanted it to be?

"The story is not the point, the hero of the story is the point." -Carol Davis
Is God the hero in your story?
If you're running on empty, join the club! But... you don't have to stay in it! On this week's episode, Carol is bringing a message from Brookwood Church's Women's Conference to encourage you to fill up - and get renewed day by day through God's Word and fixing your eyes on Jesus!
Points to remember:
We were designed by God to be renewed day by day
"Every day, you are casting a vote on the person you want to become." -James Clear
Whatever you're going through is meant to bring God glory
Scripture to remember:
2 Corinthians 4:16-17 says, 'So we do not lose heart. Though our outer self is wasting away, our inner self is being renewed day by day. For this light momentary affliction is preparing for us an eternal weight of glory beyond all comparison...'
