You can have the most mind-blowing healing experience of your life and still find yourself right back in familiar patterns. Why? Because the nervous system defaults to what it knows. In this episode of Trauma Rewired, we explore why insight alone does not create lasting change and why the most intense healing experiences do not start in the mind, they start in the body. Co-hosts Elisabeth Kristof, founder of BrainBased.com and the Neurosomatic Intelligence Coaching Certification, and Jennifer Wallace, Neurosomatic Psychedelic Preparation and Integration Guide, unpack peak somatic experiences through a trauma-informed lens. Together, they examine how experiences like breathwork, somatic practices, and psychedelics interact with neuroplasticity, interoception, and complex trauma. They also name an often-missing piece of the conversation: these experiences are not inherently healing without preparation, capacity, and integration. This episode offers a grounded, nuanced discussion of why peak somatic experiences can be both transformative and destabilizing, especially for nervous systems shaped by chronic stress, dissociation, or developmental trauma. Rather than promoting quick fixes or heroic doses, Elisabeth and Jennifer emphasize nervous system safety, minimum effective dose, and relational support as essential ingredients for real, embodied change.   Timestamps: 00:00 – Why insight alone does not create change 05:40 – What peak somatic experiences are and are not 14:20 – Neuroplasticity, psychedelics, and the default mode network 28:10 – Somatic memory, dissociation, and complex trauma 44:30 – Why preparation and integration matter more than the experience itself 58:45 – Risks, discernment, and trauma-informed support 1:12:30 – Capacity building and minimum effective dose 1:24:00 – Integration, regulation, and long-term nervous system change Key Takeaways: Peak somatic experiences amplify existing nervous system patterns rather than replacing them. Neuroplasticity is neutral and requires direction, support, and integration. Somatic memory often surfaces without narrative recall, especially in complex trauma. Preparation and capacity determine whether an experience is healing or destabilizing. Lasting change happens through consistent, embodied integration, not one-time breakthroughs.

Integration is often treated as something that happens after a breakthrough — once insight, therapy, or a peak somatic or psychedelic experience is complete. But what if integration is actually the skill that determines whether healing lasts at all? In this episode of Trauma Rewired, co-hosts Elisabeth Kristof and Jennifer Wallace explore integration as a nervous system process, not a mindset shift. Drawing from Neurosomatic Intelligence (NSI), lived experience, and years of trauma and integration work, they unpack why powerful insights so often fade — and why the body, not the mind, decides what sticks. The conversation examines nervous system capacity, preparation, and neuroplasticity, explaining how survival patterns can override even profound experiences when the body isn't resourced to receive them. They discuss emotional and somatic breakthroughs, dissociation, the overlooked role of the body in psychedelic research, and why the "space after" healing experiences can feel disorienting without support. Rather than chasing peak moments, this episode reframes healing as an embodied practice — one built through repetition, regulation, intuition, and daily nervous system support so new ways of being can truly take root. Timestamps: 00:00 Integration as a buzzword — and why it's misunderstood 05:30 Integration as a nervous system skill, not a mindset 12:40 Why breakthroughs fade and survival patterns take over 20:15 Capacity, preparation, and why insight can overwhelm the body 28:50 Neuroplasticity, repetition, and what you get better at 38:10 Emotional breakthroughs, dissociation, and somatic journeys 48:30 Psychedelic experiences, embodiment, and what research misses 58:45 The "space after" healing — identity shifts and disorientation 1:07:30 Worthiness, intuition, and integrating truth into daily life 1:18:00 Why healing takes time — and what it means to give time space 1:25:00 Closing reflections on integration as a way of being Key Takeaways: Integration is not a cognitive process — it is how the nervous system learns to embody insight through repetition, regulation, and safety. Capacity determines whether an experience lands, overwhelms, or gets overridden by survival patterns. Preparation is essential for psychedelic and peak somatic experiences; without it, neuroplasticity can reinforce old patterns instead of creating change. Emotional and somatic breakthroughs require nervous system skill, especially for those with dissociation or long-standing protective responses. Healing often creates space before clarity — integration is choosing what fills that space next. Lasting change happens slowly, through daily practice, nervous system support, and honoring intuition rather than chasing intensity.

Andrew Rappaport was raised Jewish, trained to argue, and taught to reject Jesus. But when the gospel confronted him, he couldn't argue his way out. He followed the truth of Christianity—and lost his family in the process.

In the final installment of A New Contract With America, Professor Nick Giordano lays out the last two pillars needed to restore America's strength, prosperity, and legitimacy. Part Three focuses on achieving true energy independence, unlocking America's rare earth mineral wealth to fuel economic revival, and restoring trust in elections through commonsense reforms that ensure transparency, accountability, and confidence in the system. These are not theoretical ideas or costly government programs. They are practical, achievable solutions that strengthen national security, lower the cost of living, and reconnect Americans to institutions they no longer trust. This episode ties all ten reforms together and explains how they work in concert to build a freer, stronger, more fiscally responsible America. Episode Highlights How energy independence and rare earth mineral development can spark economic growth and strengthen national security Why election integrity reforms are essential to restoring faith in democracy and increasing voter participation How all ten reforms in A New Contract With America work together to create a more prosperous, free, and accountable nation

When Jennifer was asked how she felt getting her cancer diagnosis, her first word was not "scared," it was "shame." If you have ever felt like your emotions are too much, or you started processing feelings only to end up in pain, fatigue, or shutdown, this second part of our emotional expression series is for you. In part two of this essential two-part series on emotional health and post-traumatic growth, Co-hosts Elisabeth Kristof (founder of BrainBased.com) and Jennifer Wallace (Neurosomatic Psychedelic Preparation and Integration Guide) are joined again by Applied Neurology Expert and NSI Educator, Matt Bush of Next Level Neuro. Building on Part 1's conversation about anger, they explore how grief, shame, and positive emotions show up in the nervous system. You will hear real client stories where simple drills or balance work brought repressed emotions to the surface, why grief can feel like "phantom limb pain" for the brain, and how shame is intertwined with freeze responses and the inner critic. The trio shares minimum-effective-dose practices for grief, anger, and even joy, so emotional expression becomes regulating instead of destabilizing and opens the door to genuine post-traumatic growth. Timestamps: 00:00 — Diagnosis, shame and "too much" emotion 06:40 — When drills and bodywork unexpectedly unleash rage or tears 16:20 — Emotional expression that leads to pain, migraines or shutdown 24:45 — Grief as "phantom limb pain" and how loss impacts the body 35:10 — Chronic pain, bracing patterns and emotional repression 44:30 — Shame, freeze and the inner critic's "always and forever" story 58:00 — Minimum-effective-dose grief work and nature as co-regulator 1:09:30 — Making joy, pleasure and intimacy safe for the nervous system 1:19:30 — Daily neurosomatic practice, post-traumatic growth and closing reflections Key Takeaways: Emotional expression can bring on protective outputs like pain, fatigue, inflammation or shutdown when the body does not yet feel safe. Grief often functions like phantom limb pain: the brain must remap after a loss, which can show up in mood, immunity and body sensations. Shame and freeze are tightly linked; the inner critic's absolute "I am / I'll never" language reflects threat perception, not truth. Minimum-effective-dose practices for anger and grief, wrapped in front- and back-end regulation tools, help the nervous system learn that expression is safe. Positive emotions such as joy, pleasure and intimacy can also feel threatening and benefit from being approached in small, titrated doses that build capacity.

Some people seem born with the gift of hospitality. The moment you step through their doorway, peace meets you like a warm blanket. The room smells inviting, your needs are anticipated, and the details have been thoughtfully arranged with love. Many of us admire these “natural hostesses,” even if we don’t see those qualities in ourselves. Alicia Searl shares honestly that hosting doesn’t come as easily for her anymore—especially now that the holidays feel heavier, the gatherings larger, and the expectations higher. When she learned it was her turn to host Christmas, her first reaction wasn’t joy but stress. Yet the Lord softened her heart and reminded her of something far more important than décor, menus, or perfect planning: Hospitality is ultimately about peace, not presentation. In Luke 10, Jesus sends out seventy-two disciples with one simple instruction upon entering a home:“First say, ‘Peace to this house.’”No elaborate preparations. No expectations. Peace was the first gift exchanged. If peace rested there, they were to stay, share meals, and bring the good news of God’s kingdom. If not, the peace simply returned to them, and they moved on. Simple. Sacred. Purposeful. Hospitality is one of the primary ways believers embody the heart of Christ. Whether our homes are large or small, tidy or lived-in, beautifully decorated or simple, we are called to cultivate atmospheres where peace dwells. Our mission field begins at our front door.The people who enter our homes—and the homes into which we enter—should encounter the peace of Christ through us. This season, whether you’re hosting Christmas, visiting relatives, or gathering with neighbors, you have the opportunity to bring peace into every room you enter. Today's Bible Reading:“When you enter a house, first say, ‘Peace to this house.’ If someone who promotes peace is there, your peace will rest on them; if not, it will return to you. Stay there, eating and drinking whatever they give you… Do not move around from house to house.” – Luke 10:5–7 Main Takeaways True hospitality is not about perfection—it's about peace. Jesus instructs us to bless homes with peace before anything else. Our homes can become places of ministry through simple, Christ-centered welcome. The peace of Christ rests where hearts are open, and it returns unharmed where it is not. Peace on earth begins with peace exchanged between believers in everyday relationships. Let’s Pray Father God, Thank You for giving us a beautiful model of hospitality through Your Word. Help us to release the pressures of hosting and instead focus on welcoming people with Your peace. Soften our hearts toward every person who enters our home and every home we enter this season. Teach us to greet others with grace, truth, and love. Fill our homes with Your presence so they may radiate peace on earth in the most ordinary and sacred ways. Let the atmosphere within our walls reflect the hope we have in Christ, and may our hospitality become a testimony of Your goodness. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Why do 35,000 Puerto Rican service members fight for a democracy they can't fully participate in? In this powerful episode of the Mano a Mano podcast, host George Laws Garcia sits down with Brigadier General Victor Perez —a 36-year military veteran who rose from enlisted soldier to general in the Puerto Rico National Guard—to discuss the contradiction of military service without voting rights.General Perez shares his decades of experience advocating in Congress for Puerto Rican veterans and statehood, explaining why 250,000 Puerto Ricans have served throughout U.S. history—earning 9 Medals of Honor and the Congressional Gold Medal for the 65th Infantry Regiment—yet still cannot vote for their Commander-in-Chief or Congressional representatives when living on the island.This conversation takes on new urgency as the U.S. deploys significant military forces to Puerto Rico and the Caribbean in response to drug trafficking, Venezuelan instability, and growing Chinese and Russian influence in the region. General Perez provides firsthand insight into why Puerto Rico's strategic location makes it indispensable to U.S. national security—and why statehood would benefit both Puerto Rico's 3.2 million citizens and America's geopolitical interests.In this episode:Why 35,000 Puerto Rican service members serve without voting representationPuerto Rico's military contributions: 9 Medal of Honor recipients & 250,000+ veteransThe current U.S. military buildup in Puerto Rico and the CaribbeanChinese and Russian influence in Latin America and why it mattersHow Puerto Rico's strategic location factors into U.S. defense strategyWhy the territorial status creates inequality for veterans and their familiesHow statehood would secure democracy and economic opportunity for future generationsWhat Puerto Ricans on the island think about increased military presencePersonal stories of veteran advocates who've lobbied Congress for decadesTimestamps:00:00 Introduction & Veterans Day Tribute 03:45 Puerto Rico's Military Service Record: 250,000+ Veterans 06:15 Serving Without Representation: The Democratic Deficit 12:35 Veteran Advocates: Stories of Sacrifice and Persistence 18:25 What Statehood Would Mean for Future Generations 23:30 Economic Inequality: Territory vs. State Status 29:10 The Fiscal Oversight Board and Colonial Control 33:20 Current Caribbean Military Deployment Explained 40:15 Chinese & Russian Influence in Latin America 45:50 Venezuela Crisis and U.S. Strategic Response 51:40 Why Puerto Rico is Key to Western Hemisphere Security 56:25 How Puerto Ricans View Military Presence on the Island 01:02:10 Advice for Statehood Advocates: Never Quit 01:08:45 Conclusion & Call to Action

Guiding Your Kids to Their Good Life Hosted by: Scott SchimmelEpisode Summary: In this episode, Scott Schimmel kicks off a brand-new series called Guiding Your Kids to Their Good Life, built for anyone who cares deeply about the kids in their lives—parents, educators, mentors, coaches, or grandparents. Scott reflects on YouSchool's work with veterans transitioning to civilian life through Vector Accelerator and draws a powerful parallel: whether you're 18 or 38, the work of figuring out your life—who you are, what you want, and where you're headed—requires guidance, clarity, and intentionality. And it's the same process for kids. Scott shares a raw, relatable look at what it's like to parent kids through high-stakes decisions (education, career, life direction) while resisting the urge to control them. He introduces a powerful idea: every now and then, you get a "layup moment"—when your kid turns to you and actually asks, “What do you think I should do?” The question is—will you be ready? Key Takeaways: Guiding, Not Controlling: Kids need help making informed decisions, not scripts for their lives. The goal is autonomy, not obedience. Layup Moments Matter: Every so often, your kid will ask for your opinion. These are golden moments—don't freeze or preach. Be ready to guide. Same Curriculum, Different Ages: The questions that help veterans transition with clarity are the same ones that help kids build meaningful lives. It's about purpose, identity, and belonging. Success ≠ Meaning: You can do all the “right” things—grades, college, job—and still miss building a meaningful life. That's why reflection and guidance are so essential. The Emotional Load is Real: Your kid's choices can feel personal. But your job isn't to manage their outcomes—it's to equip them with clarity and confidence. Best Quotes: “I wish it was as easy as telling our kids what to do and then they go and do it… but that's not how this whole thing works.” “We want to help you think well about the most significant moments you can have with your kids—while preserving and honoring their autonomy. That's the ‘you' in YouSchool.” “There are a fixed number of conversations, exercises, and experiences your kid needs to find clarity. That's what we'll cover in this series.” “We've all had those moments where we drop everything to protect our kids in a crisis. But the decisions they're making about their lives? Those are just as critical.” Call to Action: Subscribe to the Parent School series wherever you get your podcasts. Visit theyouschool.com for supporting articles, tools, and resources to go deeper with your kid. Ask your kid this one question tonight:“What's something you're wondering about your future right now?”Then—just listen. You might be getting your layup moment.

The story revolves around a science fiction narrative from the X Minus One series, focusing on a time travel safari to hunt dinosaurs.

Episode Highlights: Trump's peace framework for Israel and Hamas marks a major Middle East breakthrough. Grassley exposes the FBI spying on eight senators as part of a growing bureaucratic power grab. Real threats like domestic extremists and Islamist radicals are ignored while the government targets law-abiding Americans.

Subscriber Exclusive Early Access  In this special briefing, retired FBI executive Katherine Schweit — former head of the Bureau's Active Shooter Program — brings her insider expertise to unpack the assassination of political commentator Charlie Kirk. Recorded just days after the Utah campus shooting, Katherine cuts through the noise of conspiracy theories and political spin to deliver verified facts: how the sniper carried out the attack, what evidence investigators recovered, and why the suspect's background and online activity matter. Drawing on her decades inside the FBI, Katherine explains the investigative process step by step — from sniper tactics to forensic analysis, possible charges, and how law enforcement builds a timeline to uncover motive. She also connects this case to the broader patterns she saw while leading the FBI's response to mass shootings: political, ideological, or ego-driven violence that thrives in an atmosphere of hate. Most importantly, Katherine leaves listeners with a call to action: recognize the warning signs, take responsibility for how we speak and share online, and choose kindness over division. Because preventing violence starts long before a trigger is pulled. Relevant Resources and Links: Support us on Patreon for exclusive content and early access.

Each believer has been uniquely equipped by God with spiritual gifts meant to build up the body of Christ. In Romans 12:5-8, Paul emphasizes that every gift matters equally—whether serving, teaching, encouraging, or leading. Our call is not to compare but to faithfully use what God has entrusted to us. In today's prayer and devotional, Laura Bailey reminds us that awakening our spiritual gifts often begins with noticing the needs around us and asking the Holy Spirit to empower us to respond. When we live this way, we reveal Christ’s love, glorify God, and experience the joy of serving in unity with others. Even children can learn this truth. As Laura shared with her daughters, embracing each other’s strengths helps us see the beauty of God’s design for the body of Christ. Our gifts were never meant to be hidden; they are meant to be shared. Today's Bible Reading: "So in Christ we, though many, form one body, and each member belongs to all the others. We have different gifts, according to the grace given to each of us. If your gift is prophesying, then prophesy in accordance with your faith; if it is serving, then serve; if it is teaching, then teach; if it is to encourage, then give encouragement; if it is giving, then give generously; if it is to lead, do it diligently; if it is to show mercy, do it cheerfully.” – Romans 12:5-8, NIV Key Takeaways Every believer has spiritual gifts given by God’s grace for the benefit of the whole body. No gift is more valuable than another—each has purpose in God’s design. The Holy Spirit equips us for needs in the moment, sometimes beyond our natural strengths. Serving with our gifts is an act of worship, pointing others to Jesus. Let’s Pray Heavenly Father, thank You for creating us uniquely and entrusting us with spiritual gifts. Help us embrace these gifts with joy and diligence, using them to serve others and glorify You. Forgive us for comparing or criticizing instead of celebrating how You’ve made each of us. Lead us to action, working in unity with others, so that the world may see Your love on display. In Jesus’ name, Amen. Calls to Action Subscribe to Your Daily Prayer for daily encouragement. Reflect on your spiritual gifts: How can you use them to serve your church, family, or community this week? Share this episode with someone who needs encouragement to step into their calling.

When tragedy strikes or life unravels, support often comes in waves. In the early days, friends gather, meals are shared, prayers pour in. But as weeks pass, the calls and check-ins fade, leaving many feeling forgotten. Rachel Wojo, host of Untangling Prayer, reminds us that while human support has limits, God’s love and presence are limitless. His promise — “Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you” — is written with the strongest possible assurance. Unlike people, who may forget or move on, God remains constant. His faithfulness is not tied to our performance, our circumstances, or even our doubts. When you feel abandoned, remember: God’s presence never fades. He is your Helper, your steady companion in the lonely moments, the midnight tears, and the quiet struggles. Today's Bible Verse: "Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said, 'Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you.' So we say with confidence, 'The Lord is my helper; I will not be afraid. What can mere mortals do to me?' Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever." – Hebrews 13:5-8 Key Takeaways People may fail you, but God never will. His love is permanent and unchanging. God’s promise in Hebrews 13 is emphatic. In the original text, it’s a double negative — “no way, not ever” will He leave you. Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever. His presence and love remain constant through every season. Your confidence rests in God’s help, not human approval. Let’s Pray Heavenly Father, thank You that Your love never fades. When human support weakens or disappears, remind me that You are always near. Help me to trust that Your presence is steady, unchanging, and more than enough. May I say with confidence, “The Lord is my helper; I will not be afraid.” In Jesus’ name, Amen. Calls to Action Subscribe to Your Daily Prayer for daily encouragement.

In this Labor Day episode of The P.A.S. Report Podcast, Professor Nick Giordano exposes how America's federal bureaucracy has been hijacked by ideology and activism. From DOJ employees throwing food at National Guard troops to a CDC official resigning over politics disguised as science, Professor Giordano reveals how unelected bureaucrats increasingly see themselves as policymakers rather than civil servants. Backed by studies showing overwhelming partisan bias and donation data proving federal employees lean almost entirely in one direction, he connects the bureaucratic takeover to the same ideological capture we have witnessed in America's schools. The result is a dangerous cycle of government weaponization and cultural indoctrination that undermines trust, accountability, and the very foundation of our Republic. Episode Highlights DOJ and CDC employees choose ideology over duty, exposing a weaponized government. Studies reveal a partisan imbalance among federal bureaucrats, 95% liberal views, 84% of donations to Democrats. The parallel between bureaucratic activism and the ideological takeover of America's schools and universities.

Life is full of transitions—sending children to college, moving to new cities, changing jobs, or letting go of roles and relationships that once felt essential. These seasons can feel like loss, but as Keri Eichberger reminds us in today’s prayer, God is never surprised by what we leave behind. He promises to give us hope and a future, even when the letting go is painful. When we shift our perspective, we see that the memories we carry are gifts that never fade, and each new season opens the door to fresh blessings, opportunities, and joy. The God who has walked with us in the past is the same God who lovingly leads us into the future. Main Takeaways Transition and change often feel like loss, but they are part of God’s greater plan. Memories are gifts from God—joys that continue to bless us even after seasons end. Jeremiah 29:11 assures us that God’s plans are not to harm us but to prosper us, giving us hope for the future. Trusting God means believing that the joys of the past and the blessings of the future are both in His hands. What we leave behind is never wasted—it makes room for new mercies and fresh joy. Bible Verse Reference Jeremiah 29:11 – “‘For I know the plans I have for you,’ declares the LORD, 'plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.’” Calls to Action Subscribe to Your Daily Prayer to receive daily encouragement rooted in God’s Word.

In a world where we define ourselves by our jobs, roles, and accomplishments, it’s easy to forget the most important truth about our identity—we are children of God. In today’s prayer and devotional, Kristine Brown takes us to Ephesians 1 to rediscover what God says about who we are: loved, chosen, adopted into His family, and showered with His kindness. If life has worn you down and you’ve been living from a place of defeat instead of victory, this prayer will help you stand tall and confident in your God-given identity. Main Takeaways Your true identity is not found in titles, roles, or accomplishments—it’s found in being a child of God. Ephesians 1 reminds us that we are: Loved and chosen before the foundation of the world (Ephesians 1:4) Adopted into God’s family through Christ (Ephesians 1:5) Showered with God’s kindness, wisdom, and understanding (Ephesians 1:8) When we remember who God says we are, we can face challenges from a place of victory rather than defeat. God’s light floods our hearts so we can live with confident hope as His rich and glorious inheritance. Bible Verse Reference Ephesians 1:18 – “I pray that your hearts will be flooded with light so that you can understand the confident hope he has given to those he called—his holy people who are his rich and glorious inheritance.” Calls to Action Subscribe to Your Daily Prayer for more daily encouragement rooted in Scripture.

Many believers can recite John 3:16 by heart, but have you stopped to reflect on the verse that follows? In our daily prayer and devotional, Peyton Garland invites us to rediscover John 3:17—a reminder that Jesus did not come to condemn the world, but to save it. If your view of God has been shaped by fear, legalism, or religious trauma, this verse offers hope and healing. Instead of living under the shadow of condemnation, we can step into the freedom of Christ’s love, knowing His heart is for redemption, not punishment. Main Takeaways John 3:17 shows us Jesus’ mission is rooted in salvation, not condemnation. Fear-based faith distorts God’s character and keeps us from intimacy with Him. The gospel is not about our ability to please God, but about His desire to rescue and redeem us. Shifting the focus from ourselves to Christ transforms our relationship with Him. God’s heart is a safe place—full of hope, love, and protection.

Have you ever felt stuck in a wilderness season—wandering from hope to hopelessness, unsure if God is still working? In this daily prayer and devotional, Jessica Van Roekel reflects on Isaiah 43:18–19 and reminds us that God is always doing something new, even when our surroundings feel barren. Like the Israelites in exile, we can become trapped in discouragement, shame, or the memory of past failures. But God calls us to lift our eyes, remember His faithfulness, and trust that He is making a way through the wilderness and streams in the desert. Main Takeaways God’s promises are not bound by our circumstances. Remembering God’s past faithfulness strengthens hope in the present. Shame over past mistakes can blind us to His new work in our lives. Even in deserts—whether by God’s leading or our own choices—He offers comfort, hope, and provision. We can trust Him to make a way forward when we can’t see one ourselves. Bible Verse Reference Isaiah 43:18-19 – “Remember not the former things, nor consider the things of old. Behold, I am doing a new thing…” Calls to Action Subscribe to Your Daily Prayer for daily encouragement in your inbox or podcast app. Share this episode with a friend who might be in a season of waiting or struggle.

Are you in a quiet season, waiting for God to move? Sometimes life feels like one long stretch of waiting, filled with lulls where God seems silent and answers feel far away. In today’s prayer and devotional, author Keri Eichberger reminds us that even when life feels stagnant, God’s presence is constant. He is not withholding good from us—He is actively pouring out blessings every day. The key is opening our eyes to notice His hand at work right where we are. Instead of focusing only on what’s ahead, we can experience joy and peace now by acknowledging the Savior’s presence in every moment. Main Takeaways God’s presence is constant, even in seasons of stillness or waiting. Focusing on what we wish would change can rob us of present joy. We often miss His blessings because our attention is fixed on the future rather than on Him. Acknowledging God’s daily provision renews our hope and restores joy. Waiting seasons are opportunities to deepen awareness of His goodness. Today's Bible Verse: Micah 7:7 – “But as for me, I will watch in hope for the LORD, I wait for God my Savior; my God will hear me.” Calls to Action Subscribe to Your Daily Prayer for daily encouragement straight to your inbox or podcast feed.

Whether we face distractions, temptations, or spiritual fatigue, the invitation remains: draw near, walk closely, and let the Spirit lead. ✨ Main Takeaways Galatians 5:25 calls believers to actively “keep in step with the Spirit,” implying discipline, intimacy, and direction in daily life.

The Holy Spirit grieves when we drift, but His call to return is always tender and redemptive.
