Silent Strength

When our sons were in college, a verse they turned to on many occasions was Philippians 4:13, "I can do all things through Him who strengthens me." They knew that God was with them through all their trials but it was up to them to prepare and trust in God.

God is our silent strength.  Have you ever had moments where you felt you couldn't make it through?  God is always there and He can calm your fears as you face the tallest barriers.  Strength is not always a physical attribute.  Many times is takes a strong faith to weather the storm.  If you believe in yourself, you believe in the gifts God has given you.  Therefore, you can keep going. 

We take so much for granted.  Is it too much to ask that we acknowledge God's hand in our lives?
Isaiah 41:10: "fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand."
