Day 22: My Strengths in Crisis (Stress Test)
✨ Teaching Nugget
Crisis has a way of revealing what’s really inside us. For Gen Z—navigating uncertainty, pressure, and constant change—this is especially true.
Here’s the paradox: your greatest strengths can either shine or snap under stress.
- A strength in leadership may become control.
- A strength in creativity may turn into distraction.
- A strength in empathy may lead to burnout.
Stress doesn’t destroy strengths—it tests them. Knowing how your strengths behave under pressure helps you respond with resilience instead of reaction.
📝 Reflection / Journaling Prompts
- In my last crisis, how did I naturally respond?
- Which of my strengths helped me endure it?
- Which strengths became “overdriven” and turned into liabilities?
- How can I better balance my strengths when the heat is on?
🎯 Activity
Strengths Stress Map
- Write down your top 3 strengths.
- Next to each, write: How this strength helps me in crisis vs. How this strength can hurt me in crisis.
- Pray or plan one way to keep each strength “balanced” when stress shows up.
đź“– Scripture Anchor
“When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and when you pass through the rivers, they will not sweep over you.” – Isaiah 43:2
🚀 Takeaway
Crisis doesn’t erase your strengths—it magnifies them. Learn to steward them wisely under pressure, and you’ll come out not just surviving but stronger.
