Greetings family, friends and love one...
Sometimes in life, we break ourselves trying to hold others together, sacrificing silently for people who would never inconvenience themselves for us. We give our time, strength, love, money, peace, and even our last, expecting nothing in return, because our hearts were never built on selfishness.
Truth is, many people see us smiling and assume we are okay, assume we have enough, assume we are strong enough to carry every burden alone. But deep down, some of us are fighting battles nobody knows about. Heavy weights. Silent tears. Sleepless nights. Year in, year out, surviving without help, without support, without even a single hand stretched genuinely toward us. Yet we keep showing up for others.
For me personally, everything I have ever done and everything I will ever do has never been because I expected repayment from anyone. My only hope has always been in God for the multiplying effect of every good deed. Because truly, when there is nobody to run to, nobody to lean on, God becomes the only refuge.
And to everyone secretly carrying pain behind their smile, you are not alone. I am there too. But I believe with all my heart that God will not abandon us in this present situation. One day, He will reward every silent sacrifice, heal every hidden wound, and lift us beyond the struggles people never saw.
May God separate us from people who drain us, use us, and leave us empty. May He connect us with genuine souls, favor, peace, and destiny helpers. And wherever negativity, betrayal, wickedness, or fake love exists around us, may God expose and extinguish it completely.
Let there be healing for the broken, strength for the tired, and unexpected blessings for those who have been pouring into others while secretly dying inside in Jesus Christ’s name, Amen.
