Strength

Our own strength is something every human being relies on. If we're strong enough to do something we do it. If not then we don't. Yet some people become stronger. How is that? It isn't anything they did because no one just gets stronger by themselves. But maybe it is something they did. A simple choice. Because the fact is people are weak. We don't have a lot of strength in us to overcome things without help. But what help is there? God tells us that he will give us the strength we need. It sounds simple because it is simple. You just have to ask and rely on him and he'll give you the strength to overcome things. However what he never said was that it would be easy. It's never an easy thing to be strong. It's always a fight, a struggle. Something you have to work hard for. That's the only way to truly be strong. But as you fight and struggle, as you climb that mountain inch by inch, you become stronger. Things that might have seemed hard before cease to be so. There are things that will come up again that will take another fight though. That's just the way the world works, and people are too weak to deal with it, which is why so many fall. But God is strong enough for everyone, all you need to do is trust and rely on him. It isn't easy, but it's possible. Once you do you'll see a whole new world open up to you. A world where dreams can happen, and things you never thought were possible fall out in front of you. So why don't we all take some time and just get ourselves in a position to receive from God and see what he's got planned for us. Listen to what he's saying and lean into him through whatever is going on right now. Because any time is a time for change. You could change things later today, or tomorrow, or a week from now, or a year from now. But why not change them right now and lean into true strength? 

I hope you enjoyed the post this week and that it made sense and I wasn't rambling too much.
