The apostle Paul wasn’t a pessimist. In his letter to the Christians at Philippi he doesn’t say “I can’t,” he says, “ I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me,” Philippians 4:13.
That’s the language of power. That’s victory over every temptation; grace for every trouble, and strength for every task.
Jesus gives power to face life’s adversities---power to cope and power to enjoy contentment regardless of the circumstances, Phil. 4:6-7. He gives power to face anything that comes our way.
It comforts my soul to know the mighty power of God is at my disposal as I abide in Him. I have never walked alone. He was there all the time, cheering me on, making me strong in my weakness. Praise Him.
