Dear beloved,
This letter is for the one who’s been calling it exhaustion, overwhelm, or burnout—but deep down, something feels different.
What if what you’re feeling isn’t only fatigue of the body… but weariness of the soul?
There is no denying you love God.Yet you don’t always feel connected to Him.
You let distractions crowd out prayer and time in His Word.
You show up for others, but deep down—you feel empty, stressed, or discouraged.
Could it be that what you’ve been calling burnout is actually spiritual numbness—because somewhere along the way, a quiet wall formed between you and God?
Burnout comes when we carry more than God asked us to.
But numbness often means we’re alive in appearance yet asleep in spirit—hiding from something only God can heal.
To the church in Sardis, Jesus said:
“I know your deeds; you have a reputation of being alive, but you are dead. Wake up! Strengthen what remains and is about to die.” — Revelation 3:1-2
Jesus wasn’t saying their salvation was lost, but that their faith had grown lifeless.
In Sardis, believers looked vibrant on the outside—busy with ministry, reputation, and motion—but inwardly they had lost spiritual vitality. Their faith was unrepentant, unresponsive, and unfruitful.
Today, that same “spiritual death” can look like:
* Knowing about God, but rarely talking with Him.
* Posting Scriptures online or to others but rarely opening them in secret.
* Serving tirelessly yet neglecting intimacy with the Savior.
Jesus wasn’t angry when He said this to believers in Sardis—He was merciful.
He loves us too much to let us drift into lifeless faith.He calls us to wake up—not to do more, but to return to the Source of life Himself.
Maybe you’ve tuned out the gentle whisper of the Holy Spirit because you haven’t slowed down long enough to hear.
The world offers comfort that numbs the soul—but that comfort separates us from communion with God.
Before long, we go through the motions of faith without the movement of His presence.
But Jesus has more for you—so much more.
He wants you fully alive in Him, not half-asleep in routine Christianity.
He said, “Follow Me,” not “Maintain your image.”
The Word of God is oxygen to your soul.His truth revives what apathy has buried.And His Spirit breathes new life into weary hearts.
That is such good news.
So now is the time to be honest before Him.Stop hiding pain behind performance.Stop calling numbness “normal.”
Awakening begins when you replace distraction with devotion—and bring the hidden things into His light.

Before you scroll away, pause and invite the Holy Spirit to search you:
“When do I numb out?What am I hiding from?What fear can I bring to You, Lord?What truth from Your Word do You want to breathe into this place?”
Don’t rush. Let silence speak.Wait in His presence until His peace speaks louder than your pain.
He will reveal what you’ve been avoiding—not to shame you, but to set you free.Because when Jesus wakes us up,He doesn’t condemn—He revives.
And when revival touches your heart, you’ll be able to say with confidence:
“I am awakened in Christ.”
If you’re struggling to hear, share how we can pray for you and walk beside you.And if God reveals something today, testify—your story may awaken someone else.
With love in Christ,Shawna & Camille
