How often do we burn ourselves out in the workplace due to our desire to be a servant or a "team player"? These desires, while good, can get twisted, convincing us that our well-being comes second to our work. Drawing from the biblical story of Jacob and the life of Jesus, Raven reminds us of the importance of remembering our limits and saying "no" before it's too late.

When the odds are stacked against you, holding onto your faith in God is the only way to win. Although we might experience many troubles on this earth at the hands of structural sin, we don’t have to fear. Instead, we can take the next hopeful step toward progress by grounding ourselves in God's promises and standing for the inalienable justices we deserve.
