Surrendering The Battle

Devotional
Sometimes we exhaust ourselves fighting battles that were never ours to fight. Like a child trying to carry something too heavy, we struggle when we could simply ask for help. God, our loving Father, stands ready to take our burdens, yet we often insist on handling things our way. True strength isn't found in fighting every battle ourselves, but in knowing which battles to surrender to God. When we release our grip on situations we can't control, we make room for God's perfect plan to unfold.
Bible Verse
"Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds" - James 1:2
Reflection Question
What battle are you currently fighting that you need to surrender to God?
Quote We need to just leave our battles in God's hands. How many of us are fighting battles that we know we shouldn't be fighting?
Prayer
Dear God, I surrender my battles to You. Help me to trust Your perfect timing and Your perfect plan. Give me the wisdom to know when to fight and when to let go. Amen.
