Quotes – When You Need Strength
Most days I wake up feeling weak and vulnerable.
And it’s okay.
I don’t have to be strong. I just have to get up, wander into my quiet place, and turn to the One who promises to give me His strength. The One whose grace is sufficient and whose love never ends. My Father, who will give me exactly what I need for this day.
Tomorrow . . . well, we’ll take care of that when the time comes.
Quotes – When You Need Strength

Thank you for the reminder that God gives me strength when I need it. I only need to look to Him and not try to handle everything or carry burdens on my own.
You’re welcome Misty. I tend to remember when I’m exhausted having run out of strength. My prayer is to always turn to Him first. Always!
