Strength, by its nature, is powerful, vigorous, and full of life. Strength comes from deep within and grows into a force that can only be matched by equal intensity. It is resilient. It can endure pain, struggle, and pressure.

Strength is not only physical--it is mental, emotional, and spiritual. In fact, brute strength is the weakest kind there is. Yet, mental, emotional, and spiritual strength are the kinds that determine one’s character and integrity. Moreover, it could determine the destiny of all who it influences. This inner strength can accomplish anything and makes the impossible possible. With the right motivation, it is indomitable.

You have seen and experienced many obstacles. You have walked through seasons of struggle. You have witnessed devastations in your life and in the lives of your beloved friends and family. Yet, you have gotten through it all. You have even found the courage to be vulnerable enough to ask for help when needed. It took strength to do that.

You are stronger than you think you are.

You have endured tremendous challenges without realizing you were doing it. All you knew was to survive. With this realization, be intentional. Let inner strength take center stage and diminish the energy used to stress about problems. Focus your fortitude by persisting in your goals and dreams and encouraging others to do the same. With passion and persistence, you can accomplish amazing things and encourage others the strength to see their dreams, hopes, and visions.

Genuine Care and Support Means Everything

I received a call from one of our bible study group members feeling desperation about a serious situation for a family member. Through talking about it, our member felt hopeless because the situation was completely out of their control. We prayed and asked God to give wisdom to all the parties involved in the situation and to give peace as they all walked through the challenge.

The next week, our member was so encouraged and had peace that they could not explain, "After we prayed about it together, I felt God's peace and knew that I did not have to worry."

Every day, they are walking out of this difficult challenge. It's not easy, but it's doable knowing they're not alone.
