It's Time

I think it has finally clicked. I have read Philippians 4:13 innumerable times and have confessed it even more, but I think I was only saying the words to convince myself of their truth instead of the truth of the words transforming me. Well, it has come to this, I do believe that I can do all things...through Christ who strengthens me (the key to the verse). I am tired of my self condemnation, pity parties, excuses, and blaming others for why I don't do the things I should or could be doing (like keeping up on my blog for example). Everything does not have to be perfect to begin, to take action, to try. It's time to fly.

Yes. It is a very powerful verse. I, too, need help giving up my propensity for feeling sorry for myself -- I throw pity parties for myself a few times a week!

Thanks for the reminder of the way God helps us do all things through His strength.

Note to self: Must rely on the strength of Jesus MORE OFTEN -- like all. the. time.

Thanks for your beautifully warm comments on my blog tonight. I sent you an email.

Blessings,

Yep In our own strength we are mere mortals!
Allowing the Greater One (Jesus) to live His life through us daily is the path to the Abundant life He promised us.
