God's Strength!

I wanted to share something with everyone! I had this other video shared with me a few days ago. I was greatly touched the first time, but the awesomeness of this Dad and Our Heavenly Father. But I was so overcome by emotions I couldn't see much further, even the depths of our strength from God. Then when I rewatched it again, it hit me much harder!!!



It took me back to a time in my own life. I had not been married too long. I had injured my left knee and was in rehab. Then low and behold I break my right leg and mess up my knee. I couldn't get around on the crutches very well because of my left knee injury kept me from being able to bare the weight on my left leg and no weight was allowed on my right leg at all. At this time, my daddy came to stay with hubby and I. Let me tell you about my daddy, he has heart condition, had broken his back and destroyed one of his legs. He can't get around to well. And to top it off he suffers from RA. But daddy said I'll be right there to take you too the doctor and therapy every day, as he was retired, so that hubby could continue to work. When he arrived he realized just how bad of shape I was in. He and hubby would literally have to pick me up and carry me to places and to the restroom and all. It was so hard for everyone. But you know what it was only because he got his strength from God that he was able to do this, as physically you it was thought and believed to be impossible! All things are possible with God!!! Thank you, Daddy, I can't imagine my life without him! (and he has a birthday coming up really soon!) Daddy is such a great Godly man and the light just radiates off of him! I love you, Daddy!



I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. ~ Philippians 4:13





I didn't share this to take anything away from this father and son in the video, but to show just how we can all gain our strength from God!!!
