This month on the Potter's Touch, Pastor's Toray Roberts and Sarah Jake's Roberts deliver four distinct yet deeply connected messages that speak to the heart of spiritual maturity.

This week, Pastor Sarah Jake's Roberts' message, Shift the Weight, is a powerful call to embrace the very responsibilities and pressures we often resist, reframing them as the lift that takes us to greater heights.

Hey family, welcome to the Potter's Touch. Some weights aren't meant to hold you down. They are meant to lift you higher. Today, my sister, Pastor Sarah, is going to show us how God uses the very burdens we try to escape as the training ground for our next level.

If you've been feeling heavy, get ready.

That weight may be the proof you are built

for greater altitude.

This is shift the weight.

Because part of the reason why they were able to figure out how to get the plane in the air is that there was this balance between weight and efficiency that allowed for them to have takeoff.

And the issue with wanting to go higher and faster and longer distance is that it would require

the plane to be heavier.

They needed a bigger engine, they needed bigger fuels, they needed a plane that could withstand

the elements of going higher, and so they were trying to figure out how do I add more weight and still go higher.

The weight was non-negotiable because in order to go higher, they had to add this weight.

And as I was studying about this aerodynamics, I recognized that in order for them to go higher, they had

to have more weight.

You could not have height without having weight.

You had to be willing to withstand the reality that things were going to get heavier in order

for them to go higher.

The job of the engineer was to figure out how do I take this additional weight

and still sore.

God's going to help me.

And God was trying to show me and help me to see that all weight is not bad.
