Peace that overcomes weakness and fear.

There’s An APP for That … Series / Peace that overcomes weakness and fear.
 
How strong is God in your life? How powerful is He in your life? How much is He in your life? The truth is if we can’t answer “God is strong in my life” then we probably enjoy little to no peace. When we believe God is working in our lives, we commit to and do big things. Can you honestly say the following words and mean them?

“I can do all this through him who gives me strength.” Philippians 4:13 NIV

The things we do, the way we act is connected to the strength of our God. Most of us have a hard time believing that the all powerful, always strong, and forever loving God is with us. The smaller or lesser view of God we have the more powerful our fears and stress will be. There is no peace if we believe we have a weak God. If God is not our strength, then all the problems and struggles of life fall on us. That’s stressful! Imagine everyday not being determined by the powerful and loving God working in our lives, but rather our confidence and faith being determined by the random events of each day. There is no peace in that. If you feel weak, pushed around, filled with fear; there’s an app for that. It is found in letting God be big and strong in your life.
