Synopsis

Are you exhausted, anxious, and sick of feeling like you should always be doing one more thing?

In You Were Never Meant to Do It All, Kelly Kapic is here to help—not with the latest time management advice but with a refreshing approach to embracing the truth that God never intended for us to do it all.

Readers flocked to Kapic's award-winning 2022 book, You're Only Human. Now, Kapic's message is back in the form of forty daily devotions—each with a meaningful quote and reflection questions. Kapic shows that our human limitations are not sinful but rather that God purposefully designed humans to have limits and depend on one another. Rightly appreciated, these good limits promote freedom, joy, growth, and community.

As listeners take this forty-day devotional journey, they will follow a path to more holistic living that fosters a vision for healthy self-understanding, life-giving relationships, and meaningful contributions to the world.

We often get caught up in our daily lives, trying to do everything. As time goes by, we end up exhausted and unable to find rest in the continuous cycle. So, how do we escape this cycle? We break the cycle through the reminder that we are human and God never meant for us to be anything more than tha......more

I like this quote: "God never sleeps. We usually take that for granted, but we should stop and think about it for a minute. Never. Ever. Sleeps. This gives profound comfort to vulnerable creatures who live in a hostile world" (p. 152). What a relief! That I can be a finite human who needs sleep and......more
