Oh Lord, sometimes I
can’t make sense of everything going on around me. I feel so weak. So tired.
I try so hard to be strong and hold it all together. I can try to appear unfazed and put together to
everyone else, but I can’t fake it with you.
You see straight through to my heart. You know my need.
In this moment I am so weighed down. I feel like I waved my white
flag to the enemy and he’s rejoicing in my surrender. I don’t want him to win
Lord. I want to triumph over him.
I need a fresh perspective on this situation. I need energy to get back up and fight the
enemy, the evil one who wants to still my joy.
I must confess that sometimes
I find myself wondering why we must face struggles and hardships. But I am
reminded that while I may not understand the reason, my struggles draw me
closer to you. I am given a greater
perspective that you are the only thing that I can put my hope in. I am
also reminded of the sweetest victory there ever was, your son conquering death
and rising again! What a victory!
Though I may feel exhausted
and overwhelmed, what a privilege it is to know that You cannot be
defeated. You never tire.
Conqueror. Almighty. Defender when I am weak.
I love you Lord. Amen
