Feeling Overwhelmed? - Lessons from the Proverbs 31 Woman You Didn’t Know

  Figure 1: A woman feeling overwhelmed from multitasking   Note: Image generated using Microsoft AI Designer from the prompt of   a picture of an African woman who is multitasking- performing different tasks all at once Introduction Have you ever felt like you are drowning in your responsibilities, with days blurring into weeks and an ever-growing to-do list? It’s easy to fall into a cycle of frustration questioning your ability to manage it all, when the mental load of work, personal obligations, and spiritual commitments feel overwhelming. But then I remember the Proverbs 31 woman— a figure admired by many, but also seen as an impossible standard. She was described as a model of perfection and balance. But was she truly the perfect superwoman we all think she was? Or was there something about her that we’ve overlooked? One truth I’ve learned is that, like us, she didn’t do it all alone. And that’s where the wisdom lies.

Remember: The Call to Rescue

  Verse of the day. As followers of Christ, we are called to live out the Great Commission, sharing the gospel and rescuing those who are perishing, especially those who are unaware of God's immense love for them. Just as Proverbs 24:11 reminds us, we have a responsibility to step in and intervene for those who are spiritually lost. Many people around us are struggling in life, unaware of the grace, forgiveness, and eternal life that Jesus offers. The Great Commission is not just for pastors or missionaries—it's a call for all believers. Whether it's through sharing a kind word, offering prayer, or spreading the gospel in your everyday conversations, each one of us can help rescue those who are walking in darkness, leading them into the light of God’s love. This week, let's be intentional about reaching out to those in need of God's grace. Is there someone in your life who needs to hear about God’s love? Step out in faith and be part of their spiritual rescue. Kora...
