Every journey has a beginning. Mine didn’t begin with strength—it began with surrender. I came to this verse during one of the hardest seasons of my life. A season filled with loss, uncertainty, and questions I couldn’t answer. Like David, I reached a point where I realized I couldn’t carry everything on my own. This verse isn’t about having all the answers. It’s about having the courage to ask for help. Whether you’re carrying grief, disappointment, fear, or simply searching for direction, Psalm 143:1 reminds us that the first step toward healing is being honest with God.
