How can I Have Strengh to Live Day By Day?

How can I Have Strength to Live Day By Day?

1 John 2:14 

I have written you, fathers, because you have known

  Him who is from the beginning.

I have written to you, young men,

Because you are strong, and                           the word of God abides in you,

And you have overcome the wicked one.

Where does strength come from to face life day by day by day?????

How can we tap into that power???

   I know personally, some of the struggles people can go through day by day! The discouragements, failures and success!

   I have faced the first struggles of being a teenager, struggles of going to school, colleges and receiving passing grades. Struggles of finding a good Godly wife, struggles of being newlyweds and raising a family on a tight budget. Struggles of pastoring small and large churches! Struggle of having major surgery!

                                                                                I had faced the struggles of losing jobs and having to be on food stamps, struggle of going back to school at fifty to retool, so that I can teach at schools.

                                                                             I also face struggles to teach the children both in elementary and secondary levels. I faced the struggle of caring for my wife who has RSD and M.S and the struggles of losing loved ones, the struggles of being alone and feeling alone. The struggles of being at the central attention of lies and slanders being told against you!

  So, how did I develop the strength to face life challenges day by day??????

  I must admit it’s has not been easy. I have failed at times, continually asking God to forgive me and I keep moving on; there are no magic bullets to take away the pains of discouragement, depression, failures and fears!

  Life is just at times not fair!!!!!!!

   So, how can I find strength and be successful???

                                                                                  There is a triangle action plan that I am using.

Top of the triangle is prayer, the bottom of one side is bible study and the bottom of the other side of the triangle is church.

 I know it sounds simple and strange but this action plan does work!

 So, Eddie, please explain to me how this can give me strength to go through the day????

I will explain in the coming days………..
