Strong Enough

Not me! I know that I'm not strong enough. Even on the good days, I walk away with tears. I fall to pieces regularly (maybe less that what others might, but I bottle up the emotions until the dam breaks). I'm human and I realize that daily. Everyday I know when I wake that I'm going to fail that day. I'm going to lose my temper. I'm going to say something that I shouldn't. I'm not going to help someone that I should. I'm not going to say something that I should. I will lose my patience. I'm thankful that I don't have to be strong enough.

This song came on this morning and it was just what I needed to hear. When I step out of the faith that I walk in, when I try to do things on my own, when I forget to just be still and let God... I'm not strong enough but He is, thankfully. This song reminded me.

Strong Enough lyrics
You must
You must think I'm strong
To give me what I'm going through
Well, forgive me
Forgive me if I'm wrong
But this looks like more than I can do
On my own

I know I'm not strong enough to be
Everything that I'm supposed to be
I give up
I'm not strong enough
Hands of mercy won't you cover me
Lord right now I'm asking you to be
Strong enough, strong enough
For both of us

Well maybe
Maybe that's the point
To reach the point of giving up
Cause when I'm finally
Finally at rock bottom
That's when I start looking up
And reaching out

I know I'm not strong enough to be
Everything that I'm supposed to be
[ From : http://www.elyrics.net/read/m/matthew-west-lyrics/strong-enough-lyrics.html ]
I give up
I'm not strong enough
Hands of mercy won't you cover me
Lord right now I'm asking you to be
Strong enough, strong enough

Cause I'm broken down to nothing
But I'm still holding on to one thing
You are God and you are strong when
I am weak

I can do all things through Christ who
Gives me strength
And i don't have to be strong enough (2x)

I know I'm not strong enough to be
Everything that I'm supposed to be
I give up
I'm not strong enough
Hands of mercy won't you cover me
Lord right now I'm asking you to be
Strong enough, strong enough
