"I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me", Philippians 4:13

As I woke this morning, I reflected on the scripture "I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me", Philippians 4:13 because it is one of my favorites and it's an affirmation that I use often to get me through any situation. I am a believer that God provides confirmation when He's speaking to us because He laid this scripture on my heart this very morning. My confirmation was received in the form of an email from one of my dear friends. I'd like to share the words of that email and share what I feel about it.

Mary, had a little Lamb,
His fleece was white as snow.
And everywhere that Mary went,
The Lamb was sure to go.

He followed her to school each day,
T'wasn't even in the rule.
It made the children laugh and play,
To have The Lamb at school..

And then the rules all changed one day,
Illegal it became;
To bring The Lamb of God to school,
Or even speak His Name!

Every day got worse and worse,
And days turned into years.
Instead of hearing children laugh,
We heard gun shots and tears.

What must we do to stop the crime,
That's in our schools today?
Let's let The Lamb come back to school,
And teach our kids to pray!
Ok, I'm not the most political person out there but I know that it was a political reason for removing prayer from the schools and I'm not even going to get on my high horse about that subject. My thoughts are that I do believe that through Prayer in schools, home, churches ALL things are Possible and this is why there is so much mayhem in our world. We must be prayerful at all time. It puts us in a positive Christ-like mindset and keeps us closer to HIM!! Family, Friends, Loved ones, people, Americans, World... Let's turn back to prayer because WE can do ALL things through Christ which strengtheneth US!!!!!
God Bless US!!!
