You Are Strong Enough!

Okay all week I had nothing in my heart to write to encourage you all this week. So, I left it at that, and decided I would try for next week, but as usual God speaks to me through someone or something. This week he sent an angel named Lisa, who is always thinking about me and always praying for me, even when I don't tell her to.

Lisa is a co-worker of mine, and most important a Christian. So, this morning we were talking and catching up, because I had not really seen her much this week. As we are talking she says I have this song I have been trying to send to you, every time I hear it I think of you. The song is by Matthew West and it's titled "Strong Enough", OH MY from the first words of this song I was in tears. Here is a sample of the first verse:

You must You must think I'm strong To give me what I'm going through Well, forgive me Forgive me if I'm wrong But this looks like more than I can do On my own

When I heard these words all I heard in my spirit was you are Strong Enough! I then proceeded to go back through everything I had been through in my life.

• My failed marriage that almost had me at a nervous breakdown, but God knew I was Strong Enough!

• The failed attempt to kill me, when a gun was at my head, but the gun would not go off, instead it locked, and you allowed me to not lose my mind over that, God gave me grace and mercy, and he also knew I was Strong Enough!

• The time I loss my job, could not find a job for almost 2 years with a 3 year old toddler, had to go on welfare, I did not lose my mind, God knew I was Strong Enough!

• The time my mom was diagnosed with Breast Cancer, has to be strong for her, and nurse her back to health, I did not lose my mind, God knew I was Strong Enough!

• The time when my dad had a stroke, and 4 weeks later my mother had a heart attack and was in intensive care, I did not lose my mind, God knew I was Strong Enough!

• When I became pregnant, became a single mom, felt so alone soooo many days, did not know how I would be able to raise this blessing you allowed me to birth, God knew I was strong enough!

• All the times I have been rejected and persecuted against since my childhood, I did not lose my mind, God knew I was Strong Enough!
  

As I pondered on these few adversities and others that have occurred and that are currently occurring in my life, God is saying "Mechell You Are Strong Enough" !

I come to tell you also that YOU ARE STRONG ENOUGH ALSO! because God says so! No matter what the adversity, issue, or problem, God knows you are "Strong Enough!!! So, know that what you are currently going through, God is gracing you through the process. He is sustaining you and keeping you every minute and every day, even when you feel like you might lose your mind.

I say to you think back over your life, and remember what he had allowed you to come from and through, and know that he knows that you are "STRONG ENOUGH" to handle what ever he allows in your life.

Here is the link to the song by "Matthew West", please listen to the words of this song, and be blessed.

I love when God gives you answers for your questions, HE IS AMAZING! I have been asking for weeks now why do I have to endure this pain, but I understand better now. I promise you if you ask God your questions regarding your life, he will answer you, through his word, or someone, or something, but believe me you will get your answer.


I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me...Phillipians 4:13
