When you are trudging through a season of heaviness – or maybe even just one solitude situation that is weighing you down – there is a residual affect that can disturb every other aspect of your life.

It makes everything heavy. Just a few descriptors that Webster gives for heavy are:

▪️Difficult to lift or move

▪️Substantial

▪️More than the normal size, weight, or force

▪️Moving slowly or with difficulty

▪️Mentally oppressive

Y’all, that’s a lot to bear on your own. I know. I’ve been there and done that more than once in my almost 40 years.

What if I told you that I have the secret to making it through? It’s really no secret, though. It’s Jesus and a few amazing prayer warriors.

Will it still be hard? Yup.

Will it still be heavy? Yup.

But it won’t be AS heavy. God will literally lift that load up off your shoulders and help you carry it.

Let Him.

And your knee-hitting, verse-calling, hand-raising, Bible-believing besties—they got you.

Let them.

Don’t try trudging through a torrential rainstorm alone.

Call out.

Dial out.

Ball your eyes out.

But don’t do it alone.

“Cast your burden on the Lord, and He will sustain you; He will never allow the righteous to be shaken.” Psalm 55:22
