I was at Target and picked up Joel Olsteen's book "Your best life now" to peruse while the boys looked at toys. I turned to a chapter titled "Find strength through adversity". I thumbed a few pages and in there something popped off the page at me.
~~Even if your sitting down, stand up inside.~~
I feel like I'm doing the exact opposite of this...I stand up daily outside, but I just can't stand up inside. God props me up daily, but if I allow myself to get too far away I just decide it's easier to sit back down than continue to stand. It is a really exhausting cycle that God uses to strength-train us in life....building our endurance. (and I'm ok with that...it's just not easy.)
I know my strength comes from the Lord not only in adversity, but always. Thank God for His promises!!!

That's a pretty darn good saying. I'm going to have to remember that one!

This is so true for me too.
