Through our weaknesses, we are made strong.
Since joining the Mission Volunteer program last year in May 2012, the Lord has done, given and taken so many things in my life, which are all blessings in the path of Holiness. With all the joy, comes the pain, struggle, stress, trials, and tests from the Lord only to make us stronger.
Last night I was simply reminded of wearing the FULL ARMOR of God from camp training:
- Belt of Truth
- Breastplate of righteousness
- Boots of readiness
- Shield of faith
- Helmet of salvation
- Sword of the spirit
This armor makes us stronger. Even though at times we get struck by temptation, hurt, guilt, unworthiness, this armor from the Lord is what makes us strong, essentially, stronger.
We are here as missionaries to be made strong, and to help the Lord in making us stronger
“I saw the Lord always before me, for he is a my right hand so that I will not be shaken; therefore my heart was glad and my tongue rejoiced; moreover my flesh will live in hope.”Acts 2: 23-26
Christ is our strength.
Deo Gloria.
