Ever had one of those days where diabetes just doesn't make sense—no matter how "perfect" your routine was?

In this episode, I'm joined again by Kaycee Parker, author of Devotions on Diabetes, to unpack the heart behind Day 3 of her devotional: "Nothing Makes Sense." Together, we dive into those frustrating moments when familiar routines stop working, insulin sensitivity vanishes, and you're left asking: Why?

We talk about:

• Kaycee's recurring low blood sugar every Sunday at church—and what it taught her
• Why "control" is the wrong word, and "influence" is the better mindset
• Hormones, stress, movement, and meal timing—and why they can shift our insulin needs overnight
• The emotional and spiritual weight of unpredictable blood sugars
• Scriptures that offer peace when the body feels unrecognizable

We also talk about the importance of observing trends without rushing to change pump settings, letting go of perfectionism, and trusting that peace comes not from perfect glucose graphs—but from the presence of God in the midst of the unknown.

Kaycee also shares a sneak peek into her next project: a new cookbook, Diabetic Meals Made Easy!
