Strength and Comfort

The Lord is my strength and my song; he has become my salvation. He is my God, and I will praise him, my father'sGod, and I will exalt him. Exodus 15:2
There are many times in life when we become so caught up in what we want, or what we can do, that we lose sight of who gives us strength. God gives us the strength to endure hardships and losses. God gives us the strength to support friends and family through their trials. God even gives us the strength to get out of bed in the morning to go and live our life. God alone can save us from our selfish desires and lead us to become something better. As a result of the strength that God provides, I will continue to praise him every day of my life.
God's strength is constant. God is the same today for me as he was for my parents and their parents. God's loving-kindness will continue for all time. I will always find great strength and comfort in his never ending love. As long as there is breath in our lungs and life in our bodies, we should exalt and lift high the name of the Lord for the strength to live.

Prayer: Dear Lord please help me to always lean on your strength and not my own. Help me to never forget that you deserve my praises. Give me the strength to always praise your name with my life and actions. It is in your holy name that I pray. Amen.
