You Are Strong Enough

You Are Strong Enough

Someone wise once shared this visual with me; when constructing a building scaffolding is used when the building's framework needs support, or provides support for workers making repairs to the broken down building. As the building is repaired and can stand alone, the scaffolding and workers are removed.
 
In life, as we (the building) get stronger, we no longer need the supports that we have depended on for so long. Eventually those supports are taken out of our lives, removed - so we can stand alone - because we are strong enough-God wants our dependency to be found in Him alone. Not in others, not in stuff, not in substance, not in anything this world has to offer.
 
If something has been removed, once again, don't see it as something you've lost along the way but as proof as something you've gained - your strength! God sees you as strong enough!
 
Today instead of saying, "I've lost again!" Choose to say - "I'm strong again!"
 
In His strength,
