Strong

Craig Harrison's Coffee with Jesus reflections provide a healthy cup of daily inspiration to start your day. Cover art by

As I sit this beautiful morning and have my cup of coffee with Jesus, I am thinking about STRENGTH.  What makes us strong?  Usually, when something difficult comes our way, a special trial or great sorrow, something that really reshapes our world, that is when we grow STRONG.  When God wants to strengthen us, HE allows us to enter a storm.  After the storm, we have to clean up the debris.  We look around and then we REBUILD.  We do things differently too so that we will be ready for the next trial.  And when we look back, we will see that the trial and separation the storm brought were needed to bring us closer to God.  And that has made us STRONGER. 

Today, I am grateful for the trials, the storms, and those moments when I am afraid because they have made me stronger in my relationship with Christ.    I may be battle-scarred, but I have learned that it’s not the TITLES we carry BUT the TESTIMONY that matters. 

Have a blessed day, knowing you can handle the storms when Christ is your Lord.

I needed this today. Yesterday I was overwhelmed. I know I’m strong but I needed to be reminded and this did it. Thank you so much.
