Went to Night of Champions @ APU today with my church.
One of the speakers was April Holmes 2008 Paralympian Gold Medalist. And during her short message she kept saying one thing that stuck onto me for the rest of the night.
"The reason I am going through these things is because God believes that I am strong enough"
In this time of confusion and desperation (of the Lord) I realize that through these trials and tribulations, I keep asking the Lord, "why me? why do I have to go through these things" or "I've learned my lesson so please take it away now" and now I realize why He is still taking me through these things. It's because I am strong enough to conquer it all, and I can grow to be even stronger to take on harder problems. I guess I don't really have to know His purpose in all of this, but I do know that I have all I need, I have the confidence from the Lord that I am strong enough.
"Lord I don't know what You're doing. I don't like being in the situation that I'm in now. But I'm offering You my heart, do what You will in it. Tear down every last bit if You want, but Lord continue to speak to me. And I have confidence that one day I'll reach that light at the end of the tunnel, until then I find comfort knowing that You believe that I am strong enough."
