The Strength Within

Lately I have been amazed at the amount of strength people can show during tough times. With this strength comes a positive attitude that helps us get through the hardest of life's events. Each time I hear about a friend struggling and fighting through a tough situation I think to be blessed with this strength is nothing short of a miracle. 

Mankind is by nature survivors but everyone gets kicked when they're down sometimes. Seems like so many are fighting to get back up right now. Those that are sick and battling with the power of 300, there are those who are suffering a loss but carrying their family, and those that are stuck in bad weather but still helping out a neighbor with food; I admire their strength and grace.   

God blesses us with the strength we need and is there for us at our weakest moments.  Below is my mom's favorite poem. I always liked the message and I thought some of you who are being so incredibly strong right now might enjoy it too.
