1 Samuel 30:6 "But David found strength in the Lord his God."
David and his army have just returned home and discovered their families have been taken. His men are crushed and some of them want David's head. In the midst of this mega tragedy, David "found strength in the Lord."
It's often in our weakest and saddest moments when we turn to God. When we can't do anything ourselves, when we can't fix it, when we're powerless, it's then we find our strength in God. It's the first week of school with kickoff around the corner, and I'm tired already! I feel somewhat overwhelmed with so much to do. I know I can't do it all so I need to find my strength and energy in God today.
Dear Jesus, in my weakness and exhaustion, help me find my strength in you. Amen.
