Your Question:
how do i find the strength to keep going when everything feels like too much?
Answer:
My friend, I can sense the weight of the world bearing down on you. It's as if everything feels like too much, and you're struggling to find the strength to keep going. I want you to know that I've been there too. As a pastor, I've seen many people face similar struggles, and I've learned that the key to finding strength lies not in our own efforts, but in our relationship with God. You see, our spiritual strength begins to drain when we stop lifting our eyes to Him. We start to think that we're standing too tall and trying to be like God instead of being humble. But the truth is, no effort is too high. When we take a stand and trust in God, He will give us the strength we need. It's not about trying to be strong on our own, but about surrendering to God's power and guidance. As it says in Revelation 2:7, "To him who overcomes, I will give to eat from the tree of life." When we give ourselves spiritually, we receive more strength. So, I want to encourage you to take the first step. Don't try to face your struggles alone. Reach out to others, ask for help, and remember that you're not alone. And most importantly, fill your mind with the thought that God is there, guiding and strengthening you. As it says in Mark 12:29-30, "Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength." When we focus on God and take a step of faith, He will give us the strength we need to overcome our struggles and find joy in the midst of adversity.
