8/18/12 A recent newsletter from AnGel Ministries had me
asking myself, “Do I really know and BELIEVE that God's power reaches it's peak
when I am at my weakest point? If so, why would I ever “strive” or try to work
things out in my own strength. I know in my weakness, He is strong. I know that
in my head because II Corinthians 12:9 states it. But….does my lifestyle
reflect it?
It’s easier for me to call upon the Lord for BIG
things---like public speaking or pending projects that affect others. But does all
include times when I just don’t want to do the ordinary dailies because I’m
feeling tired or discouraged. Facing another sink full of dishes. Ironing
clothes again---didn’t I just iron those? Somedays even answering the phone or
emails can seem overwhelming.
I can do all things through Him who strengthens me. (Phi.
4:13) Do I believe the ALL part?
Today, I think I just want to crawl back in bed to
consider my answers.*
How about you? How would you answer these questions?
*But God….kept me going and ministry to others just flowed
again and again. It seems His power reached me at that weak point when I didn’t
even ask.
