We often carry the weight of our past and pains that we were never meant to carry. When the weight of life piles up, we become overburdened and can feel stuck. When we feel stuck, there is always hope! No matter how stuck we may feel, God wants us to know, there is always a way out. We can change perspective, live lighter and get rid of the weight we’re carrying by believing first, it’s okay not to be okay. God’s strength is made perfect in our weakness. If we don’t express our weakness, then we can’t experience His power! Second, get completely honest, first with ourselves and then with others. Pray Psalm 139:23-24 and ask God to point out our anxious thoughts or anything that offends Him. Finally, place our dependency on God. In scripture, stress and anxiety always reveal self-dependency, and the cure for that is always God-dependency.
