Never overestimate yourself and never underestimate Jesus.
How many times do we play this game? “I can handle it.“ “I got this.” Y’all, let’s be honest, “I” is way overrated. “Me, myself and I” sets us up for defeat. On our own, our energy will plummet, hope will fade and we might fold. We can do all things as we trust in “WE.” As we stay bound to Jesus.
Apply the truth….
“I can do all things only through Jesus. Apart from Him I can do nothing. I sink. I lose hope. I misinterpret life. I’m the void of wisdom and vigor. My life is sufficient only in His sufficiency. I’m ready for anything only through Him who infuses me with inner strength and confident peace. Only His explosive power will allow me to conquer every difficulty. This is the secret to an overcoming life, depending on Jesus with every fiber of my being. (Phil 4:13 personal paraphrase)
Times are tough. Deceit is running rampant. Keep proper estimations. Stay on target. Stay dependent. (& praise the Lord that He never tires of holding us up!)
