God’s Strength

Are you more reliant on your own strength or are you most reliant on God’s strength?

Our strength and ability is limited, but God’s strength knows no limits. Our strength is finite, but God’s strength is infinite.

The Prophet Isaiah wrote, “But I will sing of your strength; I will sing aloud of your steadfast love in the morning. For you have been to me a fortress and a refuge in the day of my distress.” (Psalm 59:16, ESV).

We can count on God’s strength and give thanks to God for his strength in our lives. God is strong when we are weak. And in his strength, God shows us his faithful love and provides security and shelter for us in our times of trouble.

May we rest secure in the strength of God and his love and trust in God’s security and shelter in our times of weakness and distress.

A Collect for Sabbath Rest: “Almighty God, who after the creation of the world rested from all your works and sanctified a day of rest for all your creatures: Grant that we, putting away all earthly anxieties, may be duly prepared for the service of your sanctuary, and that our rest here upon earth may be a preparation for the eternal rest promised to your people in heaven; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.” (Book of Common Prayer, 2019).
