When You Feel Tired of Being Strong
Hard seasons can drain more than energy. You may feel worn down by responsibility, uncertainty, setbacks, or the pressure to keep functioning when you would rather stop carrying so much.
What Scripture Reminds Us
Biblical strength is not pretending nothing hurts. Scripture often describes strength as something God supplies when our own resources feel thin, one faithful step at a time.
A Prayer for Strength
God, I am tired of carrying this. Give me strength for the part of today that is mine to face and freedom from trying to solve everything at once. Help me recognize the support You provide, rest when I need rest, and keep moving with courage when the next step is clear. Amen.
