#Empowered. How does this week's word empower you?
First of all, empowered is a VERB which indicates action. The definitions are: To invest with power, especially legal power or official authority.
To equip or supply with an ability; enable.
Being empowered enables me to TAKE ACTION. I don't have to be a passive participant in life. I can TAKE ACTION to overcome temptations and distractions that are keeping me from reaching my goal.
The best part of this empowerment is that it comes from and through God. I am invested with God's power and strength to fight this battle. I don't have to try to fight it alone in my own feeble power.
God equips me and supplies me with the ability to persevere in the war to reclaim my health.
This is fantastic, Lori! You point us in the right direction by reminding us that ALL power comes from God!
