Philippians 4:13: 'I can do all things through him who strengthens me.'
Read the verses before it. Paul just said he learned to be content in plenty and in want.
This isn't 'I can score the winning touchdown.' It's 'I can be content whether I'm full or hungry, rich or poor.'
Through him. The strength is borrowed, not yours.
What you can do in Christ's strength is keep going, whatever your circumstance.
