You CAN be strong!

Right now I'm reading 2 Timothy, in the New Testament. One line, in particular, spoke to me. I'm going thru a trial right now and this one line really spoke to my heart. This one line speaks to everyone going thru a trial and gives us hope.

"For the Spirit that God has given us does not make us timid; instead the Spirit fills us with power, love, and self-control". (2 Timothy 1:7)

If we look inside ourselves, the Holy Spirit is there to comfort us. All we need to do is tap into that power. How do we do that? By praying; simple as that. Pray that the Holy Spirit will give us the courage to endure whatever trial we're facing.
It is a guarantee that God will answer our prayer. It may not be what we expect, but God knows what's best for us. He is ultimately the one who is in control of our lives, not us.
