Quotes about Strength

We recently went to the Sequim Olympic Game Farm in Washington, where we saw lions, and tigers, and...oh, I won't go into all of that.

I took more pictures than the ones here, but these are the ones that I liked best. I chose these quotes about strength, because both of these animals, the bison and the bear, seem to have that quality in abundance. While their strength may chiefly lie in their physical abilities, we can work to become strong in many areas of our Christian walk such as prayer, controlling our tongues, serving others, and seeking to glorify the Lord in all that we do.

Is it not He who gives the bison and the bear their strength? It is fitting that we, too, should draw our strength from Him.




Bison


"Do not think that love in order to be genuine has to be extraordinary. What we need is to love without getting tired. Be faithful in small things because it is in them that your strength lies."
~Mother Theresa~



Bear


"Worry does not empty tomorrow of its sorrow; it empties today of its strength."
~Corrie Ten Boom~

  2. thank you for your comments, dear Ebee! <3 I do want to be more positive, even though things are rough. It's hard. :P And yes, even though Jena was trying to help us...it really only helped Will, because he'll talk to anyone about anything. ;) It's awkward trying to talk about your feelings. I rediscovered why I'm a writer because of her. *rolls eyes* It's easier to write than talk.
    I'll be praying for you! Thinking about the future is never easy or [in general] fun. Maybe you and I can go live on the moon. Yeah, that sounds nice.
    Love you! *lots of hugs*

    Ps: I forgot to mention, I won't be able to talk on the phone on Friday because I'll be busy *headesk* but how about Thursday instead? <3
