Built to Withstand

There are times when life doesn’t just stretch you—it shakes you.

What once felt secure—your plans, your rhythm, your relationships—can shift in an instant. And suddenly, you're left trying to find your footing in a space that no longer feels familiar.

But what if the shaking isn’t meant to destroy you? What if it’s meant to uncover what’s real?

When life starts pulling away everything that felt safe, it’s easy to panic. But sometimes the removal is the rescue. Sometimes, the breakdown is the beginning of clarity.

What falls away wasn’t meant to carry you forward.

What remains—that’s your strength. That’s your foundation.

Shaking doesn’t mean you’re failing. It means things are being rearranged for something greater.

And while the process is uncomfortable, you’re not doing it alone. The God who allows the shaking is also the one who holds you steady through it.

You were never just built to survive.

You were built to withstand, reset, and rise.
