Episode 34: I Choose Today to Rest in the Renewal

November 12, 2025

Summary:

What if renewal isn’t something you achieve, but something you receive? In this gentle “pause” episode, Mo invites you to rest your mind and allow God to do what only He can do in the stillness. Transformation doesn’t just happen in movement, it’s birthed in the quiet places where peace takes root.


Through personal reflection, Mo shares how even in busy seasons of ministry, God uses moments of pause—often through her husband’s gentle reminders, to shift her focus from the to-do list to the true, lovely, and praiseworthy things of Philippians 4.


If you’ve been feeling weary or stretched thin, this episode is your reminder that rest isn’t weakness, it’s obedience. Renewal requires stillness. And sometimes, the most spiritual thing you can do is rest your mind.


Scripture References:



Today’s Step:

Take ten quiet minutes today to rest in the renewal.

No phone. No music. No multitasking. Just breathe.

Ask God:


“Lord, where have I been striving instead of resting?Where do You want to renew my mind through peace?”


Even in the quiet, God is still speaking.
