DO NOT LET any set of circumstances intimidate you. The more challenging your day, the more of My power I place at your disposal. You seem to think that I empower you equally each day, but this is not so. Your tendency upon awakening is to assess the difficulties ahead of you, measuring them against your average strength. This is an exercise in unreality.
I know what each of your days will contain, and I empower you accordingly. The degree to which I strengthen you on a given day is based mainly on two variables: the difficulty of your circumstances, and your willingness to depend on Me for help. Try to view challenging days as opportunities to receive more of My power than usual. Look to Me for all that you need, and watch to see what I will do. As your day, so shall your strength be.
Deuteronomy 33:25 NKJV Your sandals shall be iron and bronze; as your days, so shall your strength be.

The Singing NetSurfers
I will sing to my Lord as long as I live, I will sing
praise to my God while I have my being.
Regardless of the challenges we face, the first words and thoughts we should have when overcoming them are “Lord, guide direct and strengthen me”. If we stay focused on God and seeking God’s will, then our best success is assured. And that best good may not be that which we envisioned or for which we longed. But it will be the right way, and it will give us the strength and direction we need to overcome the challenge. It will also become an opportunity to show yourself and the world that God’s power is more than sufficient for all we need.
In dependence,
Z gardener
