Strength....

"I weep with grief; my heart is heavy with sorrow; encourage and cheer me with your words."
Psalm 119:28 TLB


"...'I am with you; that is all you need.  My power shows up best in weak people.' Since I know it is all for Christ's good, I am quite happy about 'the thorns,' and about insults and hardships, persecutions and difficulties; for when I am weak, then I am strong - the less I have, the more I depend on him."
II Corinthians 12:9-10 TLB


"God is our refuge and strength, a tested help in times of trouble."
Psalm 46:1 TLB


"He is my strength, my shield from every danger.  I trusted in him, and he helped me.  Joy rises in my heart until I burst out in songs of praise to him."
Psalm 28:7 TLB


"Last of all I want to remind you that your strength must come from the Lord's mighty power within you."
Ephesians 6:10 TLB


"Surely God is my salvation; I will trust and not be afraid.  The Lord, the Lord, is my strength and my song; he has become my salvation.
Isaiah 12:2 NIV


"Yes, he alone is my Rock, my rescuer, defense and fortress.  Why then should I be tense with fear when troubles come"  Psalm 62:2 TLB

"He heals the brokenhearted, binding up their wounds.  He counts the stars and calls them all by name.  How great he is!  His power is absolute!  His understanding is unlimited."  Psalm 147:3-5

Soar On Wings Like Eagles

Those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength.  They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint. Isaiah 40:31
