Jokes aside, this was literally my thought while studying my Bible.
Sometimes it feels like you just overcame one thing, only to realize thereās another area God is dealing with. You overcome one temptation, then another one shows up. You deal with your flesh, then you realize thereās another attitude, another desire, another weakness that needs to be surrendered.
Itās like⦠Lord, can we have a break? šš
But then the Holy Spirit reminded me of something: spiritual growth is not the absence of battles. It is learning to walk with God through them.
And you donāt have to be afraid of the next level. You donāt have to carry everything by yourself. The same Spirit who is helping you grow is also the Spirit who comforts, strengthens and helps you in your weakness.
Jesus said:
āCome unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.ā ā Matthew 11:28
Notice that He didnāt say, āCome to Me when youāve figured everything out.ā
He said come when youāre tired.
So if youāve been feeling like, āGod, Iām tired. Thereās always something to deal with,ā take a breath.
You are not failing because youāre still being worked on.
You are not alone because youāre facing another battle.
And you donāt have to fight every battle in your own strength.
The Holy Spirit is with you. Grace is available for this level too. And when youāre tired, rest in Him.
