What A Comfort

Tonight, I went to a near-by Church for a time of worship and prayer. And as most everyone knows, there is power in words. Sometimes all it takes is one word to touch someone's heart, or affect you in ways you never expected. For me, tonight that was hearing, "Weak made strong; in the Savior's love."

Those words to me are comforting. We all go through those times of weakness, those times when we are deep down in the valley. We all have those times when we are looking for strength from anywhere we can get it. Is God the first one we think of when we are in need of strength? Or do we think of other things? Do we go to Him when we need to be changed, to find hope? Do we allow Him to fill us with His love?

Those words show me that even when we are weak, even when we have those moments when we are deep in despair, or even hopeless that He can fill us with hope and we can be strong. We can go on with His help, and His strength. But we need to go to Him. We need to realize we need Him. We can't be relying on outside things when He is the one who knows us the best, and He can make us strong like no one else can. Let God in. Let Him be our strength. Let His love into your life and see where it takes you.
