"For I can do everything through Christ, who gives me strength."

Philippians 4:13

Strength is getting out of bed in the morning when all you want to do is keep the covers pulled up around you.  Strength is praying blessings for someone who has hurt you.  Strength is praising God in the midst of your heart breaking.  Strength is finding joy even though you are filling with sorrow.  Strength is standing back up every time you've been knocked down.  Strength is receiving grace among your guilt.  Strength is knowing God is good even when nothing in your life seems to be good. 

The source of this kind of strength is Christ.  The key to unlocking this source is seeking Him with all your heart (Jeremiah 29:13).  Sincere, still, silent, selfless time spent with the one and only Savior will produce immeasurable strength.  Once acquired, you can do EVERYthing.  Everything.
