Jesus Principles (#16 in the series)

"We need men who can dream of things that never were." ~John F. Kennedy

I pray you are enjoying these quotes from great leaders as much as I am. Today we take a look at John F. Kennedy our 35th President of the United States. I guess because I was young I didn't realize his military career. He was in the Navy and during active duty the boat he was on was destroyed under his command. He incurred a back injury but managed to rescue his crew none the less. He started the Peace Corps. His book Profiles in Courage won the Pulitzer Prize in 1957. 

"Do not pray for easy lives. Pray to be stronger men." ~John F. Kennedy

Isaiah 40:29 (NIV) "He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak."

I have found that when I am weak then He is strong. On days that I feel as though I cannot take one more thing somehow He gives me strength. Whether I have been sick, injured, or tired if I kept my hand to the plow and continued to press on He was there helping me. Crisis can educate us on another facet of God's power, mercy, and grace. Problems are something I now see as opportunities to get to know God better.

If you are going through something right now just keep going. You are never alone. If God be for you no one can be against you.  You and God are a majority. He loves you and wants you to succeed.
