I have strength for all things in Christ Who empowers me [I am ready for anything and equal to anything through Him Who infuses inner strength into me; I am self-sufficient in Christ’s sufficiency].
There may be times in our lives when God allows us to go through serious difficulties to enable us to eventually minister to and comfort others who are suffering. If this is what God permits in our lives, then we can be assured we are able to handle it because He promises never to allow us to go through more than we can bear.
It may feel as if we’re never going to overcome the challenges we’re facing, but if we look back at the lives of believers in past centuries, we see that God gave them the strength to overcome the “impossible.” Let’s remember how David faced Goliath and take joy in defeating obstacles rather than letting them defeat us.
Prayer of the Day: Lord, I trust that You are with me in every challenge. Strengthen me to overcome difficulties so I can help others find comfort and hope in You, just as I have, amen.
