less of me

God said "just start somewhere."

elodie christina Episode 36

hey homegirlssss. i have been AWOL but God is faithful.

in today’s episode, i wanted to talk about the chrsitians who are overwhelmed, tired, maybe sometimes inconsistent with the word and feeling guilty.

...  basically, all of us at some point.

i’ve been in a season where everything has felt CRAZY (hence the absence): wedding planning, work, travelling… and somewhere in the middle of all of that, my time with God started to look different.

i used to feel like i needed to "get back" to how i used to be with God - hours in the Word, long study sessions, structured prayer. but lately, God’s just been whispering, “start somewhere.”

in this episode we talk about:
✨ the guilt we carry when our quiet time doesn’t look the same
✨ how God meets us in the busyness
✨ how starting small is still starting

scriptures mentioned:
psalm 51:17 — “my sacrifice, o God, is a broken spirit; a broken and contrite heart you, God, will not despise.”
psalm 139:8 — “if i make my bed in sheol, you are there.”
matthew 11:28 — “come to me, all who are weary…”
psalm 1 — meditate on His Word day and night
1 thessalonians 5:17 — pray without ceasing
