God is the strength and motivation your heart needs! Trust in the Lord and he will sustain you today, give you reasons to keep going and not give up.

In this life, it's very easy to get discouraged and lose focus. We are weak and if we are not firm on the Rock, we can become paralyzed.

When we turn our eyes away from our Savior and look at ourselves, we see our faults and we become weak. If we look at the world or at others, we can also easily falter. But if we fix our eyes on Christ, we have the motivation to live a wonderful life.

God's Word has all the motivation we need to live our daily lives with confidence, joy and power.

I can do all this through him who gives me strength.
