I can do all things [which He has called me to do] through Him who strengthens and empowers me [to fulfill His purpose—I am self-sufficient in Christ’s sufficiency; I am ready for anything and equal to anything through Him who infuses me with inner strength and confident peace.] Philippians 4:13 AMP
REFLECTION
When all manner of adversity is our reality and we find ourselves in the swirl of a situational storm, let’s dive deep and encourage ourselves in the Lord and remind ourselves (and others) that while tests, trouble, trials and sudden, surging storms are part of our journey on earth, we can choose how we respond. And even if / when we stumble, let’s not harden in offense or disappointment, but rather choose to reach out to our Maker and prayerfully get back up, and confidently fight the good fight of faith and overcome, through Christ who strengthens us.
PRAYER POEM: Grace
My Merciful Maker ~ may my view of You be infused with only that which is eternally true, and may You grant me grace to continue to pursue You and do only what You have called me to do.
