Power

When this world knocks us down, why do we get back up?
Because of the power of the human spirit!

When sin pulls us down and tries to control us, why do we get back up? 
Because of the power of the Cross!

When this world assaults us and attempts every kind of evil, why do we get back up?
Because of the power of God!

When we are oppressed and controlled, why do we get back up?
Because of the power of free will!

When we are hurt and in need, why do we get back up?
Because of the power of Love!

When our childhood baggage resurfaces and tries to knock us down, why do we get back up?
Because of the power of family and love!

When we are battered and abused, why do we get back up?
Because of the power of our strength!

When unbearable loss is thrust upon us, why do we get back up?
Because of the power of life!

When we feel all hope is lost, why do we get back up?
Because of the power of Hope!

When we can't get up anymore, why do we get back up?
Because of the power of Christ!

When death is at your door, why do we get back up?
Because of the power of the risen Christ!
