Elevate: Raising the Bar for Conversations About ConsentSample

Sometimes asking for help can be hard. Admitting we can’t do it all makes us feel vulnerable, and that vulnerability can feel like defeat. So, we don’t ask for help when we’re struggling, suffering in silence instead. But this isn’t the only option we have.

The writer of Hebrews demonstrated a better way for us in this verse by asking for prayer. Asking others to pray for you in times of need is a great way to not only invite someone into what you’re struggling with but to have someone encouraging you toward God’s best and to keep going when things are tough. You were never meant to walk through these things alone. Are there areas of your life where you’re struggling? Don’t keep it to yourself; ask for help.

This week, go to a trusted friend, Small Group Leader, or adult in your life and ask for their prayers over this specific area of your life.
