Find Another Servant | A Spiritual Journey Through Caregiving

What do you do when the person you're caring for starts asking if life is still worth living? In this episode, I share one of my mother Madelyn’s most vulnerable letters. The emotional and physical weight of caring for my father after his stroke had become almost unbearable. And one day, in a moment of exhaustion and despair, he told her he wished he were dead. As Quentin struggles with despair and speaks openly about suicide, Madelyn reflects on faith, duty, anger, guilt, and what it means to serve God when caregiving becomes overwhelming. She responded with honesty, love, and a fierce determination to keep him safe — even while questioning her own strength. She admitted that sometimes she felt like telling God to, “Go find yourself another servant.” This letter is not about perfection or unwavering faith. It is about truth — the kind that comes from being human, tired, and still trying to love. This letter explores: Spiritual exhaustion and caregiver fatigue. Feeling angry with God — and feeling guilty about it What it means to be a channel for love. The quiet reassurance that even when we forget God, He does not forget us. 🌿 “Even on the days I forget about God, I know He hasn’t forgotten about me.” This video is part of the playlist A Spiritual Journey Through Caregiving, a series of real-time letters written during six-and-a-half years of caring for a spouse after a stroke. ✨ For anyone who has ever felt overwhelmed by caregiving — you are not alone.
