feeling overwhelmed? Bible verses that will lift you up

I don’t know about you, but sometimes life hits all at once.

The laundry piles up. The to-do list multiplies. The emotions get louder. And before you know it, you feel like you’re drowning in the swirl of expectations—some from others, but mostly the ones we put on ourselves.

If you’re in that place today, I want you to know:

You are not alone. You are not weak. And you are not failing.

You’re human. And more importantly—you are loved by a God who sees you, holds you, and carries what you can’t.

When I’m overwhelmed, I turn to these scriptures like lifelines. I hope they meet you right where you are today.

Let these words breathe life back into your tired soul.
Take a deep breath. Let your shoulders drop. And whisper a prayer—even if it’s just, “Help.”
