Do you ever feel like you're the only one still showing up, still trying, still fighting to do the right thing when it would be so much easier to quit? In today's episode of the Weekday Podcast, we return to the prophet Elijah at the mountain of God, where he tells the Lord twice, "I alone am left"—convinced he's the last faithful person standing. But God's response isn't comfort; it's correction. There are seven thousand others who haven't bowed to false gods, people Elijah couldn't see past his own exhaustion. Isolation has a specific way of lying to us—it whispers that nobody cares about this like we do, making us feel like the last honest one, the last one still trying. Meanwhile, someone else is fighting the exact same fight the exact same week, and neither of you says a word because you both assume you're alone. If you've been carrying the weight of feeling like the only one, this episode offers a powerful reminder: you were never as alone as you thought.
