Strength Isn’t the Goal

God didn’t give you strength so you could flex.

He gave it to you so you could carry something.

Something heavier.

Something holier.

That’s why He didn’t take the desire away.

That’s why He didn’t make it easy.

Because this isn’t about momentary relief—

It’s about eternal assignment.

You’re not being built to feel powerful.

You’re being built to be trustworthy.

And trustworthy people don’t get to avoid the weight.

They get trained under it.

So if you’re wondering why you’re still fighting the same pressure…

Look again.

The weight is working.

And the strength isn’t for you—

It’s for what you’re about to lead.

~ Praise God
