How do I know when to push through and when to stop?

It is Tuesday morning, or maybe Thursday, and you are already running the sums in your head before your feet hit the floor. How much more can you carry today? You want to be strong. You also want to stop. Both feelings are real, and holding them both at once is exhausting. God does not tell you to push until you break. He says: look at the road your feet are on right now.

"Ponder the path of thy feet, and let all thy ways be established."

- Proverbs 4:26 (KJV)

Grab a pen before you open anything else today. Write down two things that are draining you most. Circle the one you can put down before tonight, even for a few hours. Not everything on your list needs your strength today. One thing set down is enough.

What is one thing you have been carrying that was never yours to carry alone?

God, show me the difference between faithful endurance and wearing myself out for nothing. Help me see clearly what I need to set down today, and give me the courage to do it. I trust You with what I cannot hold. Amen.
