For when I am weak, then I am strong.
– 2 Corinthians 12:10
Weekend recap coming tomorrow, but this verse spoke to my heart and I felt the need to share. It made me realize I really am never alone, and I can be the strongest when I’m feeling the very weakest. There is just SO MUCH truth in it. Can I get an amen?!
Question: What makes you feel strong? Listening to a particular song, self-talk, reading verses, working out? Do share!

Amen! That is such a great verse. I think I feel the strongest during worship. When a worship song relates to exactly how I feel I think I feel the closes to God and that is what makes me feel the strongest.
Katie Did What
YES- me too, girl! I love how it makes you feel so close to God <3 Music is such a powerful thing!

I feel the strongest when I remember the gospel and what Christ has done for me. Remembering that He has already accomplished paying for all my sin reminds me that I do nothing to earn my salvation. The hell I rightfully deserved has been paid for in full. So much strength and joy is in that truth! Also prayer is a big time strengthener for my heart and life in general when I am feeling super weak. Love the verse you posted!! It is my life verse! :)

“I do nothing to earn my salvation.” <-- YES! I love everything you said, girl. You nailed it on the head!

I think I feel the strongest when I look back and see what I have gotten through and everything I have become. Its easy to forget how strong you really are at times.

Amen to that, girl.

I feel you girl – its super hard not to feel alone sometimes.
I like to go swimming or go outside for some yoga to feel strong. I also look to other inspirational women (lately, Audrey Hepburn)

talking it out with jerry helps. but sometimes i like to just sit by myself and do things i love like blogging, listening to music, scripture reading, etc.

Yes, Amen! It is right about when I think I have it all together on my own do I realize that life comes crashing down without relying on the Lord. I recently joined a women’s bible study at my church that has really helped me be more accountable to focusing my sights on God. :)
Katie Did What
I love that!! I really want to join a bible study!

Just found your blog, and I love it! Your outlook on life, with God as your center…. that is awesome and I love it!
I have to remind myself all the time that God knows my story– my beginning, middle, and end. And THAT is what gives me strength! That and a really awesome sweaty workout… : )
Thank you for spreading Love and Jesus around the internet for us :)
Katie Did What
Aww you are the sweetest!! Thanks for your comment, girl! :) I love what gives you strength- a nice sweaty workout always does the trick for me, too. And to know that God knows our entire story- so beautiful!

Oh boy, this verse. It gets me every time.
I don’t know that I ever feel very strong but I guess sometimes when I can say to myself, “Katie. You’ve got this. You will make it through. God wouldn’t give you something you couldn’t handle.” And just believing in that. Gets a little hard to do sometimes but if I am able to do that I feel strong and brave. I think I’m going to have to do that a lot from now on with the way life has been going lately. I guess it really is the weak moments when you realize how much you need God.
Katie Did What
I love what you said. Yes. If you’re able to say to yourself that God is in control, and really believe it, then you are indesctructible!
