This prayer is for you. Life demands so much of us—especially when we feel like we have to stay strong for everyone else. But God never meant for us to carry the weight alone. This video invites you to rest, release the pressure, and lean into God’s sustaining strength. 📖 “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.” — Matthew 11:28 🙌 If you’ve been silently struggling, let this prayer remind you that God sees your heart, your exhaustion, and your desire to keep going. You don’t have to be strong all the time—His strength is made perfect in your weakness.
