Written by Weariness often isn’t about how much you’re carrying, it’s about what you’re looking at.
Looking to Jesus, the author and perfecter of faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising its shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. Hebrews 12:2
What you focus on determines what and how you feel. If your eyes stay on your problems, your strength will fade, but when your eyes are fixed on Jesus, your endurance is renewed. Fatigue often comes not because you’re doing too much, but from looking at the wrong things for too long. Jesus didn’t say the race would be easy, but He showed us how to finish it, by keeping our eyes on the Father’s purpose. When you shift your focus from your struggle to your Savior, something changes inside you. Peace replaces anxiety. Strength replaces weakness. Hope rises again. The key to endurance is not trying harder, it’s looking higher.
Thoughts to Ponder:
Refocus your attention on Jesus today through prayer and Scripture.
