Feeling the Weight of Weakness

We all have days where we feel like we’ve hit a wall—emotionally, physically, or spiritually. In today’s devotional, Keri Eichberger opens up about those moments of exhaustion and inner conflict: when your soul wants to move, but your body and heart just can’t keep up.

Is God calling us to push forward? Or is He inviting us to rest? The good news is—either way, He’s with us. Whether you’re taking a break on the bench or stepping back onto the field, God isn’t disappointed in your weakness. In fact, His power is made perfect in it.

So let go of the guilt. Lay down the pressure. And lean into the truth that God loves you just the same, no matter what pace you’re moving at today.

But lately my body can’t seem to measure up to the expectations of my soul. Which has instigated a spiral of exhaustion and defeat. I want to move, and need to move—I think. But my lack of motivation and the dwindling of my energy is almost nauseating at times. A swelling sadness from disappointment that I can’t seem to rise to the occasion. I wonder how often you feel weak? Or if you’re feeling it today too? If you’re burned out from working too hard, exhausted from emotional overload, or worn down from stress or waiting for a change of circumstances. Whether it’s physical, emotional, mental, or even spiritual, an array of elements can drain us to debilitation. And what do you suppose God thinks about this?
