When the holiday laughter fades and the room gets quiet again, the old aches return: bills, diagnoses, strained friendships, the gnawing sense that you’re pushing hard and sliding back. We go there with Psalm 31 and let David show us how to live honestly in the tension—naming pain without pretending and trusting God without numbing.

We start with the emotional drop that follows celebration and move into David’s raw inventory of grief, loneliness, and exhaustion. Then we ask the question that holds the whole episode together: what does courage look like when the circumstances won’t budge? Psalm 31 offers a clear path. Tell the truth about where you are. Refuse the shortcut of denial. Put your weight on the God who doesn’t change when everything else does. We explore how trust is not a feeling but a practice—casting cares, choosing prayer over panic, and returning to the shelter of God’s presence.

You’ll also hear a personal story from repeated hospital stays during a high‑risk pregnancy and the line that reshaped everything: if God wanted me out, I would be out; since I’m still in it, He’s in it with me. That perspective doesn’t erase pain, but it anchors the heart.  By the end, we leave you with a simple refrain to carry through the week: you are covered—behind, before, and beside.

If this encouraged you, follow the show, share it with someone who needs courage today, and leave a quick review so others can find it. What’s one burden you’ll name—and trust God with—this week?
