He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak. – Isaiah 40:29 (NIV)

God Gives You the Strength You Need
Scripture
You may not feel super-hero-strong, but God gives you the strength you need every day. And don’t worry about being strong tomorrow! He gives you what you need, at the very moment you need it. Which, if you think about it, it really takes the pressure off!
And today, if you woke up feeling weak or worrying about something that’s happening, or if you are going to bed nervous about tomorrow, stop right where you are. That’s right. Stop and take the next two minutes to breathe and ask God for help.
In fact, during this time, say things out loud like, “I know I can do this—God said He’d help me,” and even, “I don’t have to worry—if I feel weak, that’s OK! God’s got me!”
I’ve learned that there’s nothing better than peace! Studying and focusing on God’s Word is what fuels your ability to have power. And with God’s Word working in your life, it gives you the boost you need to take on anything!
Kid Prayer: God, when I feel weak or totally drained, please send me Your strength.
Parent Prayer: God, I refuse to focus on my weaknesses because I know You send Your strength to me. You are faithful and always come to my rescue.
