“My grace is sufficient for you for My power is made perfect in weakness”
— 2 Corinthians 12:9 NIV

There are days I do not feel strong
Not emotionally Not spiritually And definitely not financially

Being unemployed has left me feeling uncertain and afraid. Not just for myself, but for my daughter. The weight of not knowing how we will make it, what doors will open, or if I am even doing the right thing is so heavy. Some days I wake up already tired, already questioning, already trying to hold it all together with nothing left in me.

But here is what I am learning.

God is not asking me to be strong.
He is asking me to be honest. To show up. To surrender.

To whisper His name when that is all I can manage.
To trust that even in my weakness, He has not left me.

Strength is not pretending everything is okay.
Strength is showing up with empty hands and saying,
Lord I need You.

So if you are tired unemployed unsure of what is next
You are not alone
And you are not too broken for God to use

He is holding you
He is providing in ways you cannot yet see
And even now
He is still writing your story

Prayer

Lord, I am tired. I do not know what comes next, but I give You what little I have today: the fear, the doubt, the worry about how I will provide. You see my heart, and You know my needs. Help me rest in Your promises, even when everything feels unsure. Remind me that I am not alone, that You are near, and that grace is still chasing me, even here, even now. Amen.
