Do you ever get “stuck” on a verse from the Word of God that is just so rich that it won’t let you go until you’ve marinated in it for a good while? Lately I’ve been camping on 2 Corinthians 12:9-10.
But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me. That is why, for Christ’s sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong.
The thought struck me – do I live as if I believe this? I know it’s TRUE, but am I basing my day-in, day-out life on this truth? Am I living it? So often I treat difficulties and feeling weak with frustration, rather than seeing them as an opportunity to invite Jesus’ power to empower me and bring life to my soul. I want His Holy Spirit to permeate my whole being so there’s nothing of me left.
Friend, HIS grace is sufficient. For all things. Im going to believe this and live wholeheartedly from it today. Join me?
