Pressure
MARCH 8, 2024
If you fail under pressure, your strength is too small.
Proverbs 24:10, NLT
Recommended Reading: 2 Corinthians 11:22-33
The BBC recently interviewed boxer Anthony Joshua about the frustrations of his career. He said, “People create this narrative and put pressure on me. It’s too much. Gone are the days when it was fun…. I just want to be normal, I don’t want to put myself under pressure.”1
A lot of people could say the same about their own careers or lives. Our pressures increase, our responsibilities multiply, and we feel distracted and overwhelmed. Our “strength is too small.”
We can take everything to the Lord and commit it all to Him in prayer. Life becomes a drudgery when we feel responsible to carry all our burdens on our own shoulders and bear all our responsibilities in our own strength. Today ask God to help you cut out the things you should not be doing and to continue doing what you should be doing in the strength He gives, knowing that He will strengthen you.
When we come to the end of ourselves, we come to the beginning of God.
Billy Graham
