We must never forget our strength comes from Jesus.
Trying to walk in our own strength, our own wisdom never works. We will fail.
When this world threatens to overwhelm us with all its sin and sorrow, we need to remember – it is Christ who strengthens us.
Another scripture I love is found in I Peter 5:10. “But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you.“
I picture the Lord setting me firmly in the right path, pouring His strength into my being, settling me with a peace that passes all understanding.
Praying the Lord will ” stablish, strengthen, settle you” today.
This is so beautiful- I can feel Mom behind the words – or even quoting the words… thanks and keep reminding yourself!!
