What does it mean to gird yourself with strength? To me, girding yourself with strength is done on more than one level. You must be strong enough for your tasks physically. You must be strong mentally, and most important, you must be strong spiritually. We look to God for our strength, because ultimately He is the one that provides strength each day.

It is God that girdeth me with strength, and maketh my way perfect. Psalm 18:32 KJV
