I, THE SOVEREIGN LORD -- AM YOUR STRENGTH. You are keenly aware of your weakness. You know that your strength is insufficient to handle the many challenges you face. Though this feels uncomfortable, it is actually a very blessed place to be. Awareness of your neediness can help you keep turning to Me, letting Me supply all your needs according to My riches in Glory.
When your energy is running low, connect with Me -- your Strength. Sometimes I pour abundant energy into you as you spend time in My Presence. At other times I energize you only bit by bit, giving you just enough strength to keep moving slowly forward. Although the abundant provision is more dramatic and satisfying, do not be discouraged when I choose to give you strength sufficient only for the moment. This may be My way of keeping you ever so close to Me on your life-path, leaning on Me. This closeness helps you hear My whispers -- telling you of My delight in you. To hear these whispers clearly, you must trust that I, the Sovereign Lord, am in charge of your life and that your journey -- though difficult -- is full of blessing.
