God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble.—Psalm 46:1 (NIV)
If we are “out of our mind,” as some say, it is for God; if we are in our right mind, it is for you.—2 Corinthians 5:13 (NIV)
The Apostle Paul was an extraordinary man who took extraordinary actions. Perhaps many at that time thought that he was out of his mind. Truth was, Paul’s love of God drove his actions and led him to lead an amazing life. He cared little about those who thought he was a fool.
Lord, God, I long to be moved by Your love and to put my love for You above how others think of me.
God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble.—Psalm 46:1 (NIV)

He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak.—Isaiah 40:29 (NIV)
