A "Forward" Just for Me

I don't often pay too close attention to forwards (sorry if you happen to someone who sends them to me.). I prefer reading emails that are intended for me specifically, rather than something marketed to whomever. Funny thing about the 'forward' that I received a few minutes ago... it was intended for me. It was something I needed to hear in this moment. How personal God is... and so kind to give us what we need along the journey to help us move forward. Thank you, Dyan, for forwarding this to me...:


Small Straws In A Soft Wind by Marsha Burns -- December 4, 2008:
Deliberately let go of everything that hinders your forward spiritual and physical momentum. Don't let up, stop, give up, or go back. If you will persist in moving through the difficulties that have materialized at this point in your life, breakthrough is just ahead. Refuse to allow disappointment or discouragement to devastate your hope or debilitate your faith. Be strong. The enemy will lie to you and try to make you believe that you are not strong enough or smart enough to do this, but I tell you that in your own strength, you may not be, but I am with you and in you, says the Spirit of the Lord, to give you the strength and wisdom that you need to overcome. 2 Corinthians 12:9 And He said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness." Therefore most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.
