Bible Verse of The Day – 6-4-15

 

Proverbs 18:10 (NKJV) 10 The name of the Lord is a strong tower; The righteous run to it and are safe.

God has a way of taking things that look dark and ugly and bringing something beautiful out of them.

Have you ever had to face something that made you weak at the knees, but somehow you remained standing in spite of the news you had just received? Did you ever have to be strong for someone else when you yourself felt so emotionally drained?

I remember when I was at the hospital many years ago, and the doctor came in to tell us that my little niece had passed away. As dark as that moment was, I found myself standing there and able to hold and comfort those around me that needed it.

It’s not that I was a super strong person, or didn’t have my own emotions that I was dealing with. My pain was just as bad; it hurt just as much and I felt the loss just like they did.

2 Corinthians 12:9-11(NKJV) 9 And He said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.

It was simply God’s strength working in me, holding me up. His strength was made perfect in my weakness.

Don’t be discouraged today if you are feeling weak. Let Him be your strong tower. Let His strength be made perfect in you today.

He has what it takes to keep us standing, to keep us strong and to keep us from losing it.

Run into His arms.
