Strength

We don't always have to be strong to be strong. Sometimes, our strength is expressed in being vulnerable. Sometimes, we need to fall apart to regroup and stay on track.

We all have days when we cannot push any harder, cannot hold back self-doubt, cannot stop focusing on fear, cannot be strong.

There are days when we cannot focus on being responsible. Occasionally, we don't want to get out of our pajamas,. Sometimes, we cry in front of people. We expose our tiredness, irritability, or anger. There are those times that we give ourselves permission to "fall apart" so we can discover the strength and courage in the midst of weakness.


And He said to me "My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness". Therefore most gladly i will rather boast in my weaknesses that the power of Christ may rest upon me.
~II Corinthians 12:9
