I’ve been at the end of my rope more times than I can count.
I’m sure you have been, too.
When you hit that point, the one where you feel like you’ve got nothing left, you have two choices…
1) Let go, or
2) Tie a knot and hang on
Hanging on takes faith.
It takes trust that God has your back, even when everything in you wants to let go.
And here’s the truth to always keep in mind:
You don’t ever have to hold on alone.
I remember the story of Moses where he held up his staff in battle, and as long as he did, his people won. But he got tired. His arms gave out. He couldn’t do it alone. So Aaron and Hur stepped in, held his arms up for him, and the battle was won.
That’s what we need sometimes.
Someone to stand beside us,
lift us up, and remind us…
we’re not in this alone.
You can only hold the weight for so long before you need help. And when that moment comes, you have to ask.
So if you’re at the end of your rope, don’t let go.
Tie that knot.
Hang on.
And if your grip starts slipping,
ask for help.
Because you were never meant to fight this battle alone.
