What to Do When You've Done All You Can and It Still Isn't Enough
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
There's a particular tiredness that comes from loving someone you can't protect.
If you've done everything you could and it still wasn't enough, this one is for you.
Today we sit with Jochebed, the mother of Moses. She hid her baby for three months, then wove a basket, sealed it with tar, and placed him in the river. The world would call that giving up. Scripture calls it faith. Hebrews 11:23 tells us Moses' parents acted by faith, not by defeat, and there's a real difference between surrender and abandonment.
We'll look at three small things to carry today: that faith isn't the opposite of doing your best, that letting go isn't walking away, and that Jochebed never saw the end of the story. She simply did the next right thing and left the rest with God. We also hear about Joe Ball from Devon, whose yes on the worst day of his life saved four others.
Today's one step: name the thing you cannot carry. Say it out loud if you can. Then pray, "God, I've done what I can. This part is yours."
Subscribe for a 5-minute devotional every single day. We meet here each morning for honest, bite-sized encouragement rooted in Scripture and real life. Tomorrow we meet Miriam, the sister who kept watch by the river, and ask why staying close is one of the bravest things you can do.
What one thing do you need to place in the basket this week? Tell me in the comments. I read them all and I pray over every one.
Scripture: Hebrews 11:23 (NLT), Exodus 2:1-10
