Day 89Goodnight, Lord

I Can Do All Things Through Him Who Strengthens Me

I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.

Philippians 4:13

Maybe tonight you're lying down thinking about tomorrow and feeling like you won't be able to handle it. The list is long, the challenges too, and your strength feels small. But hold on to this truth for the night: your capacity doesn't end where your strength runs out. You can do all things — not by your own power, but through Him who strengthens you. Tomorrow, strength will come from God, in the exact measure you need it. You don't have to stockpile courage tonight; you only have to rest and trust that He will equip you at the right moment. Tonight, hand over to God the tomorrow that feels too big, and sleep. His grace will be there when you wake up. Don't measure tomorrow by today's strength. With God strengthening you, you will be able to handle it. Rest: the right strength arrives at the right time.

Prayer

Lord, on my own I cannot handle tomorrow, but in You I can do all things. Strengthen me when the day comes. For now, I rest and trust in You. Amen.
