The Holy Spirit will be your strength when you have none.
Hi, I’m Joni Eareckson Tada. When a soldier is wounded in battle, it does no good for him to know that there are those at a hospital who can bind up his wounds – what he needs is someone to carry him there and have a doctor apply the remedy. The same is true for us – sometimes our emotional wounds are so great, we’re simply too faint to drag ourselves to the spiritual hospital, as it were. But never should we think that God has placed his promises on a heavenly shelf that are too high for us to reach. No. God gives us a helper, and Jesus said in John 16 that the Holy Spirit is that helper. So, please remember that God’s promises are not there for us to apprehend them on our own. No, he has given you the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit will be your strength when you have none, so thank the Lord today that you have such a wonderful helper!
