We are pressed but not crushed,
perplexed but don't despair.
We are persecuted but not abandoned.
This is from Sara Groves' song, Word off her album Conversations. Fantastic music. Fantastic message. I highly recommend it.
It reminds me of another great quote that I love...
I am tired. My arm aches. My head boils. My feet are cold. But I am not aware of any weakness. (Zane Grey)
The difference is in the source of hope - God or self. While self-reliance is a great human virtue, much to be desired, surrender is the source of power in 2 Cor 4:8.
Today in Church we sang I Surrender All.
