Claire StatonClaire Staton never doubted God was real-she grew up believing in Him. But for years, she wrestled with a question she couldn't shake: What difference does Jesus actually make in my everyday life? Faith felt more like a concept than a force that shapd her reality. She was a driven, task-crushing, high-energy go-getter who believed hard work could fix anything. But what happens when life throws something at you that you can't outrun, outwork, or outthink? God, in His relentless love, refused to let her stay there. He used the people around her-especially her husband, Jonathan-to show her that what Jesus did on the cross for us wasn't just about eternity; it was about every ordinary, chaotic, and heart-wrenching moment of the present. Then came grief, the kind that steals your breath and drops you to your knees. In that darkness, Claire discovered what true dependence on God really looked like. When she had nothing left to give, no strength to stand on, He was the one who got her out of bed. And for the first time, she truly understood-faith isn't about pushing through on your own; it's about depending on the One who already carried it all. That journey led her to write Whispers to the Weary, a devotional for those who are exhausted-physically, emotionally, and spiritually-wondering if Jesus is close in the mess of real life. Through raw honesty, unfiltered poems, and the hard-won lessons of learning to rest in God's strength instead of her own, Claire invites others to stop striving, start listening, and hear the quiet, steady whispers of a God who never leaves their side.
