My Weakness

What’s your weakness? Perhaps it’s a good sale, or shoes, or chocolate, or how about (oh, yes) grandchildren! Let’s not forget, we all have a common weakness – sin! There’s one who just delights in knowing and exploiting our weakness – Satan. More importantly, however, there is One Who knows our weakness and delights [rather] in empowering us to victory over the sin and the enemy. He says, “My grace is sufficient for you, for My power is made perfect in weakness.” (2 Corinthians 12:9). I pray this “borrowed blessing” lifts weary spirits and encourages fearful hearts.

When I am at my weakest point -- You are just beginning.
When I know myself to be at the end of my strength,
I know my LORD to be at the front of the battle.
When I'm convinced I cannot go another step,
You sweep me into Your mighty Arms
And carry me the rest of the way.
LORD, I abide in Your marvelous grace.
I lean on your never-failing love.
