Strength

I have had a worship song running through my head all week.  Actually, just three verses of a worship song that I heard on Sunday:  "Christ alone, Cornerstone, Weak made strong in the Savior's Love..."

It is hard for me to admit that.

I used to "hang" with a crowd that never talked about God.  I forgot about Him for awhile.  Thankfully, He never forgot about me.  He has been working on me, drawing me closer to Him...and, I could not be more grateful.  I know I still have a LOT of growing to do (until my last breath); but, as of this moment, I have NEVER felt closer to Him.  And, because of Him, I feel stronger.

I used to pretend to be strong.  Independent.  I could do anything.  I was strong (and so, so, so scared!).

The strength I have found in Him gives me peace.

At 38 weeks pregnant, I need His strength, His peace.

Ahhhh.  Thank you, God, for all that you are and all that you do for me and through me.  Thank you for loving me.  Thank you for showing me how to love.  For these things I pray, Amen.
