Weakness

Daily Vitamin

Weakness — “I almost believed this lie and even implored the Lord three times to remove the thorn from my flesh. Finally it dawned on me that grace is God’s language; He doesn’t speak “thorn-langauge”. He said to me, “My grace elevates you, to be fully content.” And now, instead of being overwhelmed with a sense of my own weakness, He overwhelms me with an awareness of His strength. Oh what bliss to rejoice in the fact that in the midst of my frailties I encounter the dynamic of the grace of God to be my habitation. I now enjoy a delightfully different frame of mind when I encounter things that would normally make me feel frail, whether it be from insults or when I am in situations where I’m forced to do things with my arms twisted behind my back; whether I am persecuted or feel squeezed into claustrophobic spaces. Because of Christ, every time that I encounter weakness I escape into the strength of my I am-ness.” (2Corinthians 12:8-10, The Mirror Bible)

We have so many discussions about Paul’s thorn in the flesh. It doesn’t matter if was spiritual or physical. What matters is it took him to Daddy God. He began to realize how frail he was without Daddy God, Jesus and Holy Spirit! We are no different. Life brings many difficult circumstances our way, some large some small. It’s what we do with them that brings either devastation or the grace to overcome them!

Allow the grace of Daddy God, Jesus and Holy Spirit to help you through your weakness! They have the ability to turn it into overcoming grace.

Be a Blessing, Sir Gregory
