Finding Rest in God's Care | Vol I, Week 8 -- Held Catholic Devotional

Fear and exhaustion travel together. When you are tired, your fears get louder, your patience gets thinner, and your hope gets smaller. Steve Corbin opens Week 8 of Held with Jesus' invitation to real rest, not just sleep, but a deeper rest of the heart. This week traces that invitation through Psalm 4:8, Psalm 131, and Hebrews 4:9-11, three passages that meet exhaustion with trust instead of striving.
