He provides Strength

from this book (thanks, Sarah!)... this is just what I needed this morning to reign in my thoughts/emotions....

As for your days, so shall your strength be. (Deut 33:25) You must not excuse yourself from the battle because you are weak, for the Lord strengthens the feeble. Do you not know? Have you not heard? The LORD is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He will not grow tired or weary, and his understanding no one can fathom. He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak. Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall; but those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint. (Isaiah 40:28-3)

You can not serve Him in your strength. You can only serve Him in the strength He gives as you need it. Here, take the bread, take the fish, and feed the thousands. Never say that it is not enough (Matt 14:17). He will multiply both the bread and the fish as it is broken and consumed. There will be more than you need.

Listen, you who profess to me in Christ, you who love Him, you who have a work to do. God will give you the necessary strength and grace.

A lot recently, I've needed to reign in my thoughts and emotions and worries b/c they are spiraling. AND HE HAS HELPED ME! I hate to say it, but this has been a surprise to me! Its an ongoing thing that will need to re-happen in like minutes.
