I can do all things through Him who strengthens me. Philippians 4:13

We are strengthened through His Word.

We are strengthened through His forgiveness.

We are strengthened when we enjoy contentment in whatever situation our ministry gives to us.

We are strengthened when we allow Christ to hem us in and shroud us with His love.

Lord, I thank you for using these amazing ministry-minded workers to serve your precious children. Lord, strengthen us for service in Your Kingdom. Forgive us when we fall short of carrying out Your ministry calling of us. Lord, lead us to abide in You and enjoy the abundant life You desire us to live. We pray this and all things in the name of Jesus, Your Son and our Savior—the source of our strength and of our abundant ministry life. Amen.
