God Gives Strength

by Merci Warren

Journal Prompt: What is one major lesson or thing that God is teaching you so far this week? How have you found yourself tested, and what has your response been like? Can you connect that to the Bible Studies we’ve been having? 

My Thoughts

One lesson I have been learning is that when we rely on God he gives us strength.  I have been learning that to live by the Spirit you have to submit yourself to God, especially, when you hit the limits of your flesh. Not only do you submit, but you apply your mind to God’s word and you let it give you sustenance and mercy to keep on in service.
