Strong Enough

Top of Form

One song that has encouraged my wife and I over the last ten weeks is Strong Enough  by  Matthew West. I don't know of the circumstances in which he wrote the song, but surely it was inspired by what Paul wrote about his struggles.  That is why, for Christ's sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions,in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong. - 2 Corinthians 12:10 

So whatever "thorn" you are dealing with today (cancer, loss, depression, heartache, brokenness) remember to accept God's grace and strength. It is enough...

You must, You must think I'm strong,

To give me what I'm going through

Well, forgive me, Forgive me if I'm wrong,

 But this looks like more than I can do On my own

I know I'm not strong enough to be
everything that I'm supposed to be
I give up, I'm not strong enough
Hands of mercy won't you cover me
Lord right now I'm asking you to be
Strong enough, Strong enough
For the both of us

Well, maybe, Maybe that's the point
To reach the point of giving up

Cause when I'm finally, Finally at rock bottom
Well, that's when I start looking up And reaching out

I know I'm not strong enough to be
Everything that I'm supposed to be
I give up, I'm not strong enough
Hands of mercy won't you cover me
Lord right now I'm asking you to be
Strong enough, Strong enough

Cause I'm broken, Down to nothing
But I'm still holding on to the one thing
You are God and you are strong, When I am weak

I can do all things, Through Christ who gives me strength
And I don't have to be, Strong enough, Strong enough

I know I'm not strong enough to be
Everything that I'm supposed to be, I give up
I'm not strong enough, Hands of mercy won't you cover me

Make this your prayer today - Lord right now I'm asking you to be, Strong enough, Strong enough
Greater and stronger is He that is in you! Amen?
