A Reminder

Even if you do not need it today, I do, so I will say once again:

"I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me."

Which is not to say I can do all things. Rather it says, I do them all by allying my will with His. He does them in me and I do them through Him. I must cooperate, but it is not my power that gets them done. It is my fervent hope that the trials of this day go a long way to helping a chief cause I cherish. May what I suffer return as love to all of those who need it.

Steve, that was my favorite verse to say to myself during childbirth, labor and delivery and even when recovering from C-section pain. It's a powerful verse!
