Bipolar Life-Five Reasons to be Bold, Courageous, and Strong

I’ve had a series of events take place over the last week that have exhausted my mind, heart and spirit. While I’m on a reload and re-energize mission, I’ve repeatedly shared with others just how good God is. Through these trials I am so blessed and thankful He’s with me!

There was a time I couldn’t face the days of trials with this same joy. A time that strength was hard to come by, and the weight of darkness would truly hold me down. God is aware of our struggles. He is also made perfect in our weakness.

When we are grasping for a foothold, He is whispering his words of comfort and building a perch below our feet. You can always be bold, always be courageous and always be strong, because He is living in you!

Believe today that God has your back. What He supplies will not be found in anything of this world. His Word is your light and your guide. His hand is always ready, His love is always present. You are never alone. You are never forgotten. You, my beloved, are His- a child of the Almighty God!

Take a moment to reflect on the following five verses and to really proclaim His victory in your life! God gave us reasons to be courageous, and they all point to Him.

From the Life Application Bible-

  1. Philippians 4:13 – I can do all things because Christ gives me strength
  2. Isaiah 40:31 – But they who wait upon the Lord will get new strength. They will rise up with wings like eagles. They will run and not get tired. They will walk and not become weak.

  3. Psalm 28:7-8 – The Lord is my strength and my safe cover. My heart trusts in Him, and I am helped. So my heart is full of joy. I will thank Him with my song. The Lord is the strength of His people. He is a safe place for His chosen one.

  4. Ephesians 3:16 – I pray that because of the riches of His shining-greatness, He will make you strong with power in your hearts through the Holy Spirit.

  5. 1 Chronicles 16:11 – Look to the Lord and ask for His strength. Look to Him all the time.

I'm someone who has always had a deep passion for literature and writing. From a young age, I've been captivated by the power of words and the way they can transport us to different worlds, open our minds to new ideas, and connect us with people and experiences that are distant from our own. Whether it's immersing myself in a classic novel, jotting down my thoughts in a journal, or crafting my own creative stories, writing and literature have always been an essential part of my life. I'm excited to continue exploring this rich and rewarding field, and to share my thoughts and insights with others who share my love for all things literary.
