I have this Scripture on a beautiful plaque in my bathroom.  And as I was getting ready this morning, I glanced up and there it was…like a beacon of truth, light, and hope.  It was a wonderful reminder that I don’t have to do this thing called life all by myself.  In I Timothy 1:12 it says that the Lord stands by my side and gives me strength…strength in all situations.  This strength He gives me is much more than just bearing and suffering through a trial.  The strength God gives,  enables me to effectively handle with grace and patience all things that come into my life.  For it’s only through Him,  I can cope with all things for His glory.
