Today I broke down… because of my sin.
I was hiding from God all day, trying to do everything in my own strength and it only produced anxiety and fear.
I finally gave in and came to his feet, I didn’t know what to say, but the Spirit told me, just bring your tears.
His kindness is what leads to us to repentance.
His never ending grace that comes after us when we are crippled with our guilt and shame is always enough.
2 Corinthians 12:9
“And He has said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for power is perfected in weakness.” Most gladly, therefore, I will rather boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may dwell in me.”
When we are weak God is able to then work through us to bring about what He desire of us.
Not because He cannot work with our strength, but because He desires humility from us.
Humility that leads to pure worship… in Spirit and Truth…
Humility that allows Him to grow our Character and not our own fame.
When our weakness is sin, illness, suffering, disease, heartache, pain….
His power is through a savior who conquered it all and a Spirit that is now able to comfort us through it all.
Yield to him in your weakness for in due time He shall…
Mount you up with wings like eagles, help you run and not get tired and make you walk and not become weary.
