Your Question:

How do I keep going when everything feels like it's too much to handle?

Answer:

I can relate to feeling overwhelmed and struggling to keep going. As a pastor, I've seen many people face similar challenges. When everything feels like it's too much to handle, it's essential to remember that we're not alone. We can turn to God and ask for His guidance and strength. The Bible reminds us that when we're disciplined by God, we should allow Him to have His way with us and put us in a right-standing relationship with Him.

It's also crucial to talk to someone who has been on a similar path. As a husband and father, I've learned that sharing my struggles with my wife, Susan, and our children, Joshua and Rebecca, helps me stay grounded and focused. We can support each other and encourage one another to keep moving forward, even when things seem impossible. And, of course, prayer is a vital part of this process. We can ask God to prepare our hearts for victory and arrange circumstances to help us overcome our challenges.

When I'm feeling overwhelmed, I try to remember that I have choices. I can choose to give up or to keep moving forward, trusting in God's plan and provision. As the Bible says, "No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it." (1 Corinthians 10:13) By choosing to trust in God and seek His guidance, I can find the strength to keep going, even when everything feels like it's too much to handle.
