I love you Lord my strength..

I love you, LORD, my strength...

(from Psalm 18)

From where do we gain our strength?

From communion with the Lord

and from service to our brothers and sisters.

We have wonderful examples of both these in Jesus's own life:

long nights spent in prayer -- in communion with the Father

and in healing the sick,

forgiving sins,

raising the dead,

preaching the kingdom of God was present.

Take a few moments today

and see how you derive your strength

from the Lord.

And if you find you are weak,

ask yourself how you can find your strength in Him...
