There's a pharmaceutical company who used the slogan: "Take comfort in our strength." They wanted people to be put at ease when using their products because of the effectiveness and track record of their brands. People would purchase their products simply because they recognized and trusted the name of the company who offered the goods.
In the same manner, we can take comfort in the strength of our God. We can be at ease when we implement His principles, offer petitions to His throne, and recommend His virtues to others. We can rest assured because we know His effectiveness and track record.
Yet despite our knowledge of the strength of God, we often grow restless and apprehensive when things don't happen the way we think they ought to happen. We grow weary while waiting on God's answer to show up. We lose heart when we allow the enemy to plant seeds of doubt and discouragement in our spirits.
Don't forget the strength of your God! Encourage yourself in His Word. Remind yourself of His goodness and what He's done for you in times past. Get into His presence and let His awesome glory surround you. There is no way that your faith can be shaken when you have experienced the greatness of God firsthand.
So, take comfort in His strength! Don't be moved by what you see. And when you see others around you who are experiencing the pains of life, send them to the best remedy that you can give: your Heavenly Father.
Verse of the Day: Behold, God is my salvation; I will trust, and not be afraid: for the LORD JEHOVAH is my strength and my song; he also is become my salvation. Isaiah 12:2
