Station 9

Artist: Becca Fisher '24

Like Jesus, we can fall in our mission to finish our God-given journey. We too can collapse under the unbearable pressure of the expectations to which the world holds us. Mental illness, depression, anxiety, and many other hardships can crush us mentally, physically, and emotionally, making us feel defeated and unworthy. We, however, need to rise up each time we fall, like Jesus did after he fell for the third time. It can be difficult to rise to the challenge after feeling defeated or hopeless, but with God’s strength, anything is possible. We too must get up with the weight of our crosses on our back and persevere. Even though we may be tired, weak, bumped, and bruised by what the world has thrown at us, we are given the strength of perseverance and courage to push through the hard times.
