S T R E N G T H
my faith is tested once again. and truth is, my strength can only take me so much. every day, my exhausted mind, body, and soul are just draining with weakness. and seriously, i am T - I - R - E - D. but my Lord, i know, these trials that you give me are challenges to my strength. and i will face it all head on, and i will fight this battle to be strong. but my Lord, equipped me with added power to conquer it all. i leave it all in your grace and mercy. i KNOW...you will see me victorious in the end.
fear not,
for I am with you;
be not dismayed,
for I am your God;
I will strengthen you,
I will help you,
I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.
28 Do you not know?
Have you not heard?
The LORD is the everlasting God,
the Creator of the ends of the earth.
He will not grow tired or weary,
and his understanding no one can fathom.
29 He gives strength to the weary
and increases the power of the weak.
30 Even youths grow tired and weary,
and young men stumble and fall;
31 but those who hope in the LORD
will renew their strength.
They will soar on wings like eagles;
they will run and not grow weary,
they will walk and not be faint.
Isaiah 40:28-31
9 But he said to me,
“My grace is sufficient for you,
for my power is made perfect in weakness.”
Therefore I will boast all the more gladly
of my weaknesses,
so that the power of
Christ may rest upon me.
10 For the sake of Christ,
then, I am content with weaknesses,
insults, hardships,
persecutions, and calamities.
For when I am weak,
then I am strong.
MY PRAYER:
14 For this reason I bow my knees before the Father, 15 from whom every family in heaven and on earth is named, 16 that according to the riches of his glory he may grant you to be strengthened with power through his Spirit in your inner being, 17 so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith—that you, being rooted and grounded in love, 18 may have strength to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and length and height and depth, 19 and to know the love of Christ that surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.
—Ephesians 3:14-19
