But he replied, “My kindness is all you need. My power is strongest when you are weak.” So if Christ keeps giving me his power, I will gladly brag about how weak I am. ~ 2 Corinthians 12:9 (CEV)
KEY IDEA:
Christ's power comes to us when we are weak and helpless.PRAYER:
Lord, thank you for paying attention to me when I am so needy. I feel like I bother you too much. But apparently, I'm looking at the situation wrong. You aren't looking for the strong and confident. You are looking for weak people who are willing to trust you to make things happen. Help me to turn from trying to look strong and successful. I need you to assist me in acknowledging that I am weak and in need of Christ -- continually. I want to be in a position of "braging" about how Christ meets me in my weakness. It's all about him! Amen.
