Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength. The second is this:'Love your neighbor as yourself.' There is no commandment greater than these. Mark 12:30-31

I Can Do All Things
I often hear from friends and family that I am strong person, and I know they are not referring to physically strength. I face many struggles in life especially with an upcoming deployment approaching quickly. I know that I cannot face this new struggle alone so many times a day I repeat Philippians 4:13, "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me."
I know that with His strength, His guidance, His wisdom, and His love I will get through any trial that I am facing. Yes, my husband will be gone for a year. Yes, I will become mom and now dad. Yes, I will continue to homeschool my children. Yes, I will continue to further my own education. Yes, I will continue on with my daily routine called life. Yes, I will get through it because He is right here with me with His arms wrapped around me.
So life throws us curve balls but He is there offering us strength.
