How to be "strong enough" --- Accept that you are weak

    The important thing is to remember, first and foremost, that His strength is perfect. God is the only one who can hold us up and make us strong when we are weak. We need to be able to accept our weakness, but we can only do that when we know we are securely held in a loving embrace.
 
Once we know that we are loved, then we can stand strong and lift each others up also. As a society we are so focused on how strong we can be, but the reality is that we are weak. We can't do it all alone. We need God and we need people. Sometimes, it might look like we are strong, able to do it alone, but it is a lie. When we are prideful, that is when we fall. We need to always lean on Jesus to be our strength.

One of my favorite songs says "His strength is perfect when our strength is gone. He'll carry us when we can't carry on. Through His power, the weak become strong. His strength is perfect, His strength is perfect."

Please, always remember that it's okay to ask for help. It's okay not to be strong enough.

Love, Sara
