Sometimes people ask me where the strength I have comes from or why even when there are challenges going on in life how I am still able to smile. The answer is simple. I know the Lord. I am not saying that just by knowing Him that the challenges aren't there. But by knowing Him and the way He cares for me I can manage those challenges. Yes there will be occasions when I will feel a bit overwhelmed but His love calms me, His arms console me and He reminds me that He is there to protect me and watch over me.
When people ask me how I am able to deal with different situations in my life I simply tell them that it is nothing but God. Plain and simple. There is no reason to complain about it. Complaining has never brought me a solution anyways. If anything it makes me feel worse because I am then focusing on and giving power to the problem or challenge. So what I do is I rely on God to resolve my issue. It doesnt mean that I dont feel the pain or that I do not suffer sometimes. What is means is that I am trusting in something bigger and greater than this one situation.
We have come to make our problems so big and our God so small - that is backwards. So, today I stand firm on the word of God and declare victory over my circumstances and I will not allow them to overshadow the power of God!
