Pray the words of this Lazaroo aloud, with unshakable faith:

“But now be strong…”
(Haggai 2:4)

You say that like I can just do it, Jesus.

That may make for a great athletic company slogan
but I’m not sure it will work for me.

Are You saying all I have to do is decide to be strong

and that’s what I’ll be?

Seriously…

is that how it really works?

What if I try that against an opponent much bigger, stronger, smarter and better connected than I am –

and end up publicly humiliated
thoroughly defeated
brutally crushed?

Well, then…I lose.

But so what?

That wouldn’t necessarily mean I wasn’t strong, would it?

Losing a battle doesn’t mean I’m weak.

In fact, tackling a just cause knowing the odds are overwhelmingly against me

is proof positive of uncommon strength.

You’re in me.
I have at my disposal unlimited strength.

I can be strong

anytime I choose to draw strength

from You.
