The Strength of Weakness

Main Verse: …for my strength is made perfect in weakness. 2 Corinthian 12:9

Song to Meditate on : Let Go Let God (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=76o4xhxIKfs)

Lately, I have a lot of things happening in my life, a lot of new challenges, added stress, stumbling blocks you name it. I have been tired, a bit frustrated and I just feel like I am not achieving some things I set out to achieve.

During this season however I think I am truly beginning to understand what was meant when God said to Paul that “my strength is perfect in weakness.”  You see ladies, throughout this time I have not been able to depend on myself. Many times I do not have a clue how to deal with the challenges I am faced with, as such I pray constantly, 24hrs per day. This has caused God to show himself strong in my life as I am constantly seeking him for help and have decided to let go and let God.

I am also appreciating that it is very important that we face challenges and trials along this journey because that’s the only way that some of us will get on our knees. If you are like me “miss independent and strong headed” then you will want to push ahead and take on the world by yourself without even consulting God. As such God has to stop us in our tracks and show us who is in control.

Isaiah 40:29 tells us that He gives power to the faint and weary, and to him who has no might He increases strength [causing it to multiply and making it to abound]. So ladies, this morning, I implore you wait on God, pray and seek him when you feel weak, when you feel overwhelmed, when you feel helpless. He will give you added strength for the journey and he will even carry you some parts of the way. Many times when I look back I have to ask God when and how that situation went away or how was it done. That is because it was not done out of my own strength instead, it was taken care of by God.

Have A God Filled Day Ladies.

Let’s Pray:

Might God thank you for being our strength in our seasons of weaknesses and challenges. Forgive us for depending on ourselves and not on you.

In Jesus Name

Amen.
