Have you ever read a verse like this and felt instantly overwhelmed? “Rejoice always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances.” —1 Thessalonians 5:16–18 (NIV) Or verses that tell us to be patient, be gentle, be self-controlled… And thought: How am I supposed to do that when I’m not patient… or joyful… or self-controlled rightContinue reading “When God’s Commands Feel Overwhelming”
