Strength I Never Had on My Own

This morning I woke up with a melody in my mind — a song from the world, yes, but God used one single line to speak straight into my spirit:


“I’m not as strong as I thought… without You I’m nothing.”


And even though the song was written about a man and a woman, the truth of those words hit me completely differently.


Because when I looked at it through the lens of faith, I realized…


That is exactly what my soul feels toward God.


Not in a place of weakness, but in a place of revelation.


 The Strength I Thought Was Mine


There were seasons in my life — hard seasons, lonely seasons, uncertain seasons — where I genuinely believed I was holding myself together.


The truth?

It was never me.

It was always Him.


His grace.

His hand.

His protection.

His mercy.

His breath in my lungs.

His peace guarding my heart.


Without Him, I am nothing. With Him, I lack nothing.


That realization didn’t break me.

It grounded me.


 Waking Up With Purpose


Sometimes God speaks through Scripture.

Sometimes through prayer.

And sometimes through the simplest things — even a lyric in the early morning hours.


Because He knows exactly what our hearts need to hear.


This morning, He whispered:


“Stay close to Me — I am your strength.”


And I felt it deeply.


 For Those Who Need Strength Today


If you’re in a place where you need God to strengthen you — emotionally, spiritually, mentally, physically — I want to encourage you:


He is closer than you think.

He is working more than you see.

He is carrying more than you feel.


And sometimes, all it takes is one moment of honesty with God to realize…


You were never meant to walk alone.


 My Devotionals: Born From My Walk With God


Every devotional I’ve written came from this exact place.

Not from perfection.

Not from having it all together.

But from being held together by God.


📘 Faith in Action – 14 Day Devotional was born from seasons of fire, testing, and transformation.

📖 Living OnPurpose – 40 Day Devotional was born from obedience, surrender, and the quiet place where God meets our hearts.


If you’ve been feeling:

Weary

Uncertain

Needing direction

Wanting to reconnect with God

Hungry for spiritual alignment


Then these devotionals were written for you — with intention, prayer, and love.


 If Your Heart Says “Start,” Listen.


Begin today.

Even one page can shift the atmosphere of your day and the direction of your heart.


👉🏼 Both books are available on Amazon — link in my bio.


And remember…


You are only strong because He strengthens you.

And with Him, you will never walk empty.
