"I may be week but His spirit is strong in me."
I hear this all the time from my Pastor, friends, parents, and so on but I haven’t truly grasped it until I signed up for this trip. The realization that I am the weak one is hard accept. Living in a secular world where everything is pointing against you it's difficult to have the courage to stand out. In this transitional face becoming an adult you feel like you have something to prove, trying to show everyone you can stand on your own two feet! It’s when you realize that you don’t have to prove anything, that God is where your strength comes from, that’s when you can make a difference!
I’ve listened to the song “Give Me the Faith”(by Elevation Worship) a hundred times, it just took me a hundred times more to understand what it meant to me. The song talks about how we are weak but His spirit is strong in us, it then asks that he would give us the faith to trust what he says. It sounds so simple yet we make it so difficult for ourselves. He’s helped come this far, He wouldn’t let me fall now, right? That’s where faith comes in. That’s where the fun begins. I’ve been so overwhelmed by the encouragement I’ve gotten recently that I couldn’t possibly back down now. All that’s left is trusting in the Lord, working hard, and praying every step of the way.
If all of those who read this would pray or continue to pray for me as a work through this battle!
Remember to trust what He says, He wouldn't set you up for failure. (:
Philippians 4:6-7
6 Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.7 And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
Stefan
