When we ask God for strength, we tap into the the supernatural graces God promises to us; we receive from Jesus the strength that prevails; we experience resilience; we are filled with God's River of Life: God does not let our reserves run dry. (Teaching on the parables of the fig tree and the ten bridesmaids.)

S2: Glory or Desolation (Resilient)
Endurance—the dividing line between those who make it through any sort of trial and those who don’t. Hang on, don’t get discouraged—this isn’t just gutting it out. Not at all. The beautiful resilience Jesus offers us comes from his resources; endurance is imparted to us.

S3: Unconverted Places (Resilient)
In times of stress, it is our inner weaknesses, brokenness, and the
“unconverted places” that are going to take our legs out from under us.

S4: The Deep Well Inside Us (Resilient)
We actually have three “levels” of being: the Shallows, Midlands, and Depths. The secret of all recovery and resilience is that, when invited, Jesus Christ himself comes to dwell within our created nature, deep down in the depths, where we learn to tap into him for the strength that prevails.
