As I sit and have my cup of coffee with Jesus on this beautiful morning, I was 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 must clean up the debris, we look around, and we REBUILD. We do things differently, too, so we will be ready for the next trial. And when we look back, we will see that the trial and separation that storm brought was needed to bring us closer to God and to become STRONGER.
Today, I am grateful for the trials, the storms, those moments when I was 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. You can handle the storms when Christ is your Lord.
