Where My Strength Comes From...

Now, I'm not necessarily talking about physical strength. I'm talking about the strength it takes each day to get the job done. What job? Whatever it is that is before you that you must tackle and handle. For me "my help comes from The Lord, the Maker of Heaven and Earth" Psalms121:2. I know what you are thinking...yeah, yeah, yeah I've heard it before. But have you ever truly thought about it? Those days when you aren't sure if you can pick your head up off the pillow and look at the day. Where does that strength come from? When I'm not sure how I am going to get though that impossible situation. Where does my strength come from? When I'm not sure I can handle 4 boys that day. Where does my strength come from? My help comes from The Lord! Now, let's look at that from a physical standpoint. God gives me the strength to get through the day. The strength to get up. The strength to handle the situation. It's my job to give back. To give God the best me that I can. To work on protecting and taking care of what he has given me. My body, my mind, my heart and my soul. My whole being. Spending time in God's presence each day is essential for my physical well being. There are days I don't want to exercise and I don't. But, there are days I don't want to and do it anyway and I am usually blessed by that time. Knowing God has given me the ability and the strength to take care of myself. Not only for me but for all the boys in my life! Setting the example for them to follow so that they see the importance of taking care of what God has given us. Our bodies and our health are a gift...simply on loan. So lift your head and look to where your strength comes from. You might be surprised where blessings come from....even in your workout!
