[reposting] The strong ones are often the ones no one worrie
The strong ones are often the ones no one worries about. You're the one who always finds a way. The one who carries responsibilities, burdens, expectations, and the weight of everyone else's needs. And because you seem strong, people assume you're okay. Yet sometimes, the strongest people are quietly fighting battles no one knows about, holding everyone together while wondering who will hold them.. Maybe that's you. Maybe you've become so used to being strong that you've forgotten what it feels like to be carried. And somewhere along the way, you've started believing that you must always be the one doing the saving. But even the strongest hearts need rescuing too. Let me pray for you. Lord God, For the one reading this who feels tired from carrying so much, would You remind them that they do not have to carry it alone. For the okne who has spent so long being strong for everyone else, would You be their strength today. Quiet the worries that keep them awake at night and lift the burdens they were never meant to bear. Meet them in the places where they feel overwhelmed, unseen, and weary. Remind them that their value is not found in how much they can carry, how much they can fix, or how much they can endure. Teach them to rest in You. To trust You with what is beyond their control and to receive the grace and comfort You freely give. And when they feel like they are sinking beneath the weight of it all, remind them that Your hand is never too far to reach them. Help them remember that they are deeply loved, not because they are strong, but because they are Yours. In Jesus' name, Amen. --- "My grace is sufficient for you, for My power is made perfect in weakness." 2 Corinthians 12:9 Credits to: The Letterer
