Strength of My Heart

What's On My Heart Today

"Strength of My Heart"

"My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever." Psalms 73:26.

Strength of my Heart...This is a simple reminder that should be an encouragement to all women. There are days we just need to be reminded of our inner strength. We recently moved into a new home. This move was long awaited and well prepared. What I wasn't prepared for was my lack of endurance and strength. When fatigue set in, discouragement followed. I took a moment to sit down feeling dejected, wondering where I was going to get the strength to finish what needed to be done. In that moment, I heard a familiar voice whispering to my heart, "come and sit with me awhile." God often has to remind me where my strength comes from. This happens when we focus solely on our woes instead of centering ourselves in Christ and allowing Him to be our portion of strength in our weakness. I turned on my favorite worship music and soon my thoughts were centered on God who is bigger and mightier than any obstacle I may face. God became the strength of my heart and my portion for that day...I finished what needed to be done and more with a song in my heart.

“But I will sing of your strength; I will sing aloud of your steadfast love in the morning.” Psalm 59:16.
