stretch
That second I realize I’m going to have to stretch to reach it and every muscle tightens in anticipation rather than relaxing to bend and extend.
That moment I realize I’m going to be stretched beyond my comfortable status quo and everything within me is taut with fear.
That is when I realize I can do all things through Christ Who strengthens me.
That is when His grace takes over.
Because His power is made perfect in my weakness. And He will not allow me to be stretched beyond what I can bear.
The next time I am trying to stretch my exercise out a little longer (it’s something I’ve been struggling with lately), I’ll remember that Christ is who give me the strength to keep going.
I’m visiting from Five Minute Friday. Thank you for posting!
It’s all about HIM isn’t it?
On mine today too. Loved your post.
Blessings,
Felecia
