He gives power to the faint, and to him who has no might He increases strength…Isaiah 40:29 NIRV

God provides strength when we need to be readied to rise. He arms us with the power of love and prepares us to welcome each new day. He teaches to TRUST in the timing of His will and allows us to feel His presence when we need to find courage and strength. He helps us WAIT to be renewed with HOPE. 

It's often hard to think about why we’re not feeling strong. But God allows us to find STRENGTH in Jesus and recognize why we need it. In moments to reveal the love of His faithfulness, He opens our eyes so we will SEE what waits to be discovered. He helps us recognize the need for mercy and grace.  

When our hearts have been opened to receive, God will pour PEACE where it will flourish. He will help us understand what we need to be faithful and grown. The Bible says, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my strength is made perfect in weakness.” 2 Corinthians 12: 8-10 

We mustn’t worry when we’re not feeling strong. God will humble us. While we are held in moments of need, He will lift us to see what needs to be revealed. He will help us learn to be faithful as we share the prayers of our praise. God will increase our strength and fill us full of everything we need so we will be stronger than before. He will be our strength; our ever-present help in time of need. 

“The will of God will never take us where the grace of God cannot sustain us. “

Dear God, Thank you for mercy and grace. Thank you for humbling our hearts, so we will understand the need for Your holiness. We will TRUST You all the days of our lives and find STRENGTH in the promise of Your everlasting LOVE. We will learn how it feels to be GRATEFUL for everything You provide and choose to remain faithful in all circumstances. Thank you, Lord. Thank you! Amen

Nancy Note~ How precious it was to write my father’s eulogy and share it with sweet family and friends. It was a beautiful celebration. We must never underestimate God’s ability to strengthen us with courage and peace. No matter where we stand, God will bless the heart of our desire to do what is pleasing to Him, as we faithfully believe HE will carry us through EVERY situation when we let LOVE lead.
