There is an old saying that goes – don’t bite off more than you can chew.
It’s wise not to take on more responsibilities than we can handle. At certain times, however, we will probably feel overwhelmed by the size and difficulty of tasks we have agreed to do. This can happen even in our walk of faith in Christ when our commitment to God seems too much to bear. But the Lord has an encouraging word for us when our confidence wavers.
Therefore, do not cast away your confidence, which has great reward. For you have need of endurance, so that after you have done the will of God, you may receive the promise. Our confidence is not in ourselves but in Jesus and His promise to return at just the right time. It is God’s power that enables us to continue in our journey of faith. Recalling the Lord’s faithfulness in days past stirs our confidence in Him today.
When life becomes a heavy load
An upward climb, a winding road
In daily tasks, Lord, let me see
That with me You will always be.
Trusting God’s faithfulness stirs up our confidence.
