I
receive God's Glory –Strength. When ongoing problems require me to stick it out
over the long haul, my faith sometimes falters. That is when I resort to grimly
gritting my teeth – simply passing time in a negative frame of mind. This is
not the way God wants me to deal with difficulties. He is sovereign over the
circumstances of my life, so there are always opportunities to be found in
them. Sometimes those opportunities are obvious – other times not so much. When
the journey is hard and seems endless –this is when I search for hidden
treasure. I choose not to be like the man who hid His master’s talent in the
ground because He was disgruntled with His circumstances. He gave up and took
the easy way out: blaming the hard situation he was in, rather than making the
most out of his opportunity. The more difficult your situation the bigger the
payoff.
God
gladly grants Me Glory-Strength. It is limitless and freely available to each
of His followers. It is exceedingly potent, because the Spirit himself empowers
me –strengthening me with Power in My inner being. Furthermore, Glory-Strength
enables me to keep enduring the unendurable. This strength has no limits, there
is more than enough of it to spill over into Joy!
