The ExchangeSample

Asking for help can bring up a lot of big feelings. We may feel like it exposes our inability to do something or bring up some embarrassment. But really, asking for help is a sign of strength. It doesn't always feel like it, but it's true! The only way we grow is if we realize when we can't tackle something on our own and learn from the support we gained.
The thing is, we may not want to recognize when we're feeling weak or in need of help. God is always ready to support us, though! Our help comes from God, who is there for us in our time of need. The Psalm for today's Bible reading is a song of overcoming, a song of victory. Yet, it focuses on the writer's time of need — their moments of vulnerability. Sometimes our biggest strength is the ability to call for help in those moments of weakness.
When have you needed strength?

About this Plan

We all make exchanges! Whether you’re shopping, texting your best friend, or swapping snacks at the lunch table, most of the exchanges we make aren’t very memorable. Maybe you’ve exchanged meaningful advice or encouragement with your friends, family members, coaches, pastors, or younger people you’ve invested in. Those are the exchanges we remember. In this 20-day devotional plan from Grow Curriculum, we'll discover how we can exchange wisdom with people.
