You don’t have to have it all together. God gives strength right where yours runs out. In this episode, discover how His power meets you in weakness and why dependence is the doorway to real strength.

Do you ever feel like you’re running on empty?

When the weight of life feels too heavy, God doesn’t ask you to be strong, He offers His strength in your weakness.

In today’s devotion, you’ll hear the story of Katherine Wolf, a young wife and mom whose massive brain-stem stroke changed everything. She and her husband, Jay, learned that God’s strength often comes one step at a time, not in advance, but exactly when you need it.

Their story reminds us that God’s grace isn’t reserved for the unbreakable. It’s for the broken, the weary, and the ones holding on by a thread.

Main Scriptures:

Isaiah 40:29 – “He gives power to the weak and strength to the powerless.”

2 Corinthians 12:10 – “When I am weak, then I am strong.”

By the end of this episode, you’ll discover:

• Why weakness is not a failure—it’s a doorway to dependence
• How God’s strength shows up in the middle of your hardest days
• A simple prayer to help you receive His strength for what’s in front of you

Today’s Challenge:

Tell God honestly where you feel weak today.

Then pray: “Lord, I can’t, but You can. Be my strength today.”

Don’t try to conquer the whole mountain. Ask Him for strength for the next step, and trust Him to meet you there.
