If I weren’t in such a fowl mood, the following quote would inspire me:

Our helper is God, and he is such that no one can withstand him. As long as we continue to look to this strong loving helper, we cannot be weakened by the thought of our own frailty. It seems this is what that dear lover Paul saw when he said, “I can do all things in Christ crucified, who is in me and strengthens me.” For when Paul felt the annoyance and pricking of the flesh, he found strength not in himself, because he knew he was weak, but in Christ Jesus. It was because of Christ JEsus and that fine strong armor God had given him, his strong freedom, that he could say, “I can do all thing.”
