Good Morning,
Today the writing talks about the blessing of strength given by God to enable us through Him to achieve things that are difficult and that we thought we could never accomplish. Sandy wrote, "Next time we try to tackle something on our own... remember to cry out to God for His strength and His abundant blessing of peace and then stand in awe of His marvelous ways!"
Don't cry out in frustration; cry out to God for the potency and assistance that you need.
In His Strength,Sandy Billingham

"The Lord Gives Us His Strength"
Written by
Sandy Billingham
I am always in awe of people when they share their tough stories of what
they have walked through. Many will end it almost the very same way.
That way
is that God has given them His strength to continue on.
They will add that they
didn't see how it was even possible they could get through the storms. But
ultimately they will share it was God that carried them through. They were full
aware that they knew they could not do it on their own.
God tells us in His Word over and over that He is our strength. One particular
passage out of Psalms says...
"The Lord will give
strength to His people. The Lord will bless
His people with peace.Psalms 29:11
strength to His people. The Lord will bless
His people with peace.Psalms 29:11
The Lord promises us that He will give strength to those that are His. And
as a huge bonus He will also bless us with His peace.
How many times have we tried to take on extremely hard situations, only to
find that things just are not working out for us. We tend to sometimes forget
that our God is always there for us and wants to walk with us through every
challenge and every trial and tribulation.
Our God will do what He says, and He shall give us every bit of strength
we need despite how major it may be.
When we try to do things in our own strength, we become weary, and at times
we feel we cannot go on. We may even feel like giving up all together. We may
see our situation as completely hopeless and may think that even God can't
handle this one!
But no... we cannot put God in a box! He can do all things and will give us
His strength to not only get us through the rough times, but we shall get through
them victoriously through His Almighty Strength!
Next time we try to tackle something on our own... remember to cry out to
God for His strength and His abundant blessing of peace and then stand in awe of His
marvelous ways!
