Strongest

The strongest people are not the ones with all the fame money and power. They are the ones who can say that they are week, the ones that know that at there strongest there is one stronger, who's weakness is stronger than there strength.

They are those who's words are much, much stronger than there fists. Those who make it through rough times, understated and alone, yet not alone. Those who pick themselves up and go on. The strongest are those who help the weakest.

Strong, what comes to mind? Our world today would say, has big muscles and can lift a car or something like that. Not me, for I know what strong really means.

It means, a man leading and taking care of his family, but knows he cant do it alone. A mother who trusts in Him in the depths of mourning over children seen and unseen. A child suffering from illness yet is still full of smiles that bring joy to all who witness them. A young man in school standing up for his faith even when he's told to keep from speaking.

They can not be stoped, they will not be silenced, in the depths of fear they turn to there Savior, they cry out to the One who hears them, the One who takes care of there every need.

Most of all its the One who went through the pain, the suffering, the ridicule, and death to bring life and forgiveness to all who will take it.

I don't know about you but I want to be one of the strongest.
