strength [for today]


Sometimes I don't feel my blog is aptly named. Sometimes I don't feel very courageous.  Sometimes I don't like the journey.  Sometimes I just want to quit and give up.  Sometimes I don't understand why God feels my shoulders are so strong.  Sometimes I don't know why He thinks I can do this (even with His help!).  Yes, sometimes I don't know what to say either.


I am going through a lot right now.  I won't lie, and I won't tell you it is easy or that I am "doing well" with it all.  Some days are better than others.  I have to remember God has a plan. I don't.  He knows. I don't.  I don't have answers.  He does, even if he never provides them to me.  He does.


These verses are my daily review right now.


Psalm 29:11
The LORD gives strength to his people; the LORD blesses his people with peace.

Psalm 105:4
look to the LORD and his strength

1 Thessalonians 3:13
May he strengthen your heart
