“When Your Heart Feels Heavy”
📖 “Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.”
—John 14:27b (NKJV)
There are days when life just feels heavy.
The kind of day where your mind won’t slow down. Where fear whispers, “What if?” and anxiety says, “You can’t handle this.”
But Jesus meets you in that moment and says something different:
“Let not your heart be troubled.”
He’s not asking you to fake peace or pretend everything’s fine. He’s offering you real peace—the kind that doesn’t depend on your circumstances.
When the weight feels too much, remember:
You don’t carry it alone.
The Holy Spirit is with you. Jesus is for you.
And His peace is stronger than your panic.
Challenge:
Take one fear or worry you’re carrying right now. Write it down—and then pray, “Jesus, help me not be afraid. I give this to You.”
Prayer:
Lord, when my heart feels heavy, remind me that You’re still here. Help me trust You more than my fear. Give me Your peace today. Amen.

● This space isn’t about lofty theology or grand platforms. It’s about humble obedience, Kingdom living, and helping others, especially women and families, rediscover the kind of faith that bears fruit, costs something, and reflects the love of Christ. My heart is to encourage others as I learn, grow, and surrender alongside them.
