Often it isn’t the biggest battles that wear us down. Sometimes it’s the million tiny things, the constant buzzing, the endless demands, the little hurts no one else sees.
Even horses know this. They stand head to tail, swishing away each other’s flies and scratching the places the other can’t reach.
They recognize discomfort without needing it explained, and they offer relief instead of judgment. (And yes, horses do judge. Usually us. Ha ha)
We all carry our own invisible irritations. The question is: when we notice them in someone else, are we helping lighten the load, or adding to it?
Strength isn’t just measured by what we can carry ourselves, but by how willing we are to ease what someone else is carrying.
Gal. 6:2
