Part 2 Give me Strength

But they who wait for the LORD shall renew their strength; They shall mount up with wings like eagles; They shall run and not be weary; They shall walk and not faint. Isaiah 40:28-31

Strength is not how hard you try, but not giving up in the face of adversity...

Strength is what makes up pick ourselves up and carry on despite...

Strength is what lets you forgive someone when they did something that really hurt you...

Strength is what makes you take that leap when you are scared and not sure of what you are getting into...

Every time we face a new fear it makes us stronger...and teaches us more about ourselves too.

It takes strength to get up in the morning, strength to carry on when the going gets tough, strength to be you and not try and be something you aren't.

Strength is not just about how heavy you can lift or how long you can hold, but how you battle on each and every day, how you survive to make it to the next.

And I'll leave you with this quote which sums it up quite nicely I think (sorry I'm not sure who wrote it):

“Anyone can give up, it's the easiest thing in the world to do. But to hold it together when everyone else would understand if you fell apart, that's true strength.”
