“Resilience is the soul that bends, but never breaks. Unshaken by the storm.”...
In the Bible, resilience, though not always explicitly named, is often portrayed as perseverance in faith and trust in God despite adversity. It's about enduring hardships, trials, and suffering while maintaining a steadfast belief in God's plan and ultimately emerging stronger and more faithful.
When I reflect on my life, I ask myself, Am I resilient? Or do I draw on my deepest reserves of courage to rise above? With a life that's been blessed with fewer hardships than many, I still face moments of truth, times when my resolve is shaken, and moments when all I want to do is pull the covers up and let the world spin without me.
I find solace in quiet reflection, it’s there I can recharge and tap into the inner strength that lies within every human being.
Did our Father instill this inner resilience within our soul at birth? Is it a divine spark within us, reserved for moments when we feel utterly exhausted? He has always been our guiding light, even when we failed to acknowledge Him. He has lifted us when we stumbled, whispering words of encouragement in our ear: 'You can do this, rise up!' Until seven years ago, I mistakenly believed I possessed the strength to navigate life's challenges alone. How naive I was! He is our rock, our strength, and the gentle voice that reassures us, 'My child, I am here; try again.' As we take our first steps, we hear Him whisper, 'I love you.'
It’s Him, it’s always Him!!
He cloaks my vulnerable heart with His resilient soul.
How could I not love Him with all that I am…
“And I find that the strength of Christ’s explosive power infuses me to conquer every difficulty." Philippians 4:13 TPT
