Renewed Strenghth Each Day

Renewal isn’t always obvious or immediate, but it is happening. The trials we face are shaping us, refining our hearts, and deepening our trust in God. When we focus on our inner renewal, we find courage, peace, and joy that can withstand any challenge. No matter what we see outwardly, God is at work inwardly, strengthening us day by day.

Strength given and made whole,
God, do not take Your Spirit from my soul.
As Christ died for me, Your love sets me free,
Filling my heart with peace eternally.

Through trials and shadows, You light my way,
Your mercy renews me each day.
In joy and in sorrow, in whisper and plea,
Let Your Spirit remain, forever in me.

Overcoming Shadows of Fear

Fear, a fundamental human emotion, has been part of my life’s journey at some stage. It’s a sensation we all encounter frequently. Whether it’s fear of the unknown, fear of failure, or fear of rejection, it can often hold us back from living our lives to the fullest. However, we have a powerful source of strength and courage to draw upon.

We can find strength, fortitude, and peace to overcome fear by anchoring ourselves in the truth of God’s Word. Psalm 27:1 reminds us, “The Lord is my light and my salvation—whom shall I fear? The Lord is the stronghold of my life—of whom shall I be afraid?”

In shadows deep, fear creeps into my soul,
My heart grows heavy, and I weep,
But lo, a light, a hope so near,
Guiding me through the dark.

For God has said,
“Fear not, for I am with you.”
With strength renewed, my fears I face,
In His embrace, I find courage.

Though fear may knock on my door,
It cannot hold me down,
I break through walls of fear,
And tremble no more.
