We Are Strong

There are times in life when we can face storms, events that we cannot cope with and life deals us a hard hand that we struggle to overcome. When this happens we can sometimes feel alone and abandoned by God and our faith. But it is times when your faith is challenged the most, that you need your faith the most. It is when the going gets tough that God wants to show you He is with you. Life will always be full of tragedy and unpredictability, yet in and through all of it God is there.
If you feel that your faith is being challenged by a difficult or awful life situation, remember through this challenge you face God is there. He is with you stretching out His hand from heaven to give you comfort and love.

In Isaiah it says, "Fear not for I have redeemed you, I have summoned you by name. When you pass through the waters I will be with you, and when you pass through the rivers, they will not sweep over you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned: the flames will not set you ablaze."

God has eternity waiting for us and our faith in Christ will get us there. So if you have doubt, worry, concerns or struggles, know that God is always there to talk to. Tell him your burdens and he will answer by making you strong again and by giving you the opportunity to show your strength in your faith.

Corinthians 12 verses 9 and 10 say,
"But he said to me, 'My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.' Therefore I will boast all more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on me. That is why, for Christ's sake I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong."
