If you try to do the Master's work without the Master's power, you're tackling an impossible task! You cannot strive & wrest in your own strength. You must look to the Lord in very earnest prayer for the strength & the spirit & inspiration to help you through, or you're apt to wear yourself out.
It's like the story of the small boy who was trying very hard to lift a heavy object when his father came into the room & asked him, "Are you using all your strength?" "Yes, of course I am," the boy impatiently exclaimed. "No, you're not," the father answered, "you haven't asked me to help you!"-- Even a little help from Jesus is a bigger help than everybody else can give you! A little help from the Lord is the biggest help you can get! And that's all the help we need, just a little help from Jesus. Just a little help from Jesus will make it right, all right! Without Him you're nothing, but with Him you're everything! (John 15:5; Phi.4:13)
"Give me a task too big, too hard for human hands, then shall I come at length to lean on Thee, & leaning find my strength."
