For yours is the kingdom, and the power…(Matthew 6:13)

His strength is made perfect in your weakness.

Remember that one?

Good…because you’re weak.

Don’t get uptight, Beloved.  I’m weak, too.  As a matter of fact, when it comes to spiritual matters I’m kind of pathetic.  I try to be strong, and on occasion I pull off a good imitation of strength, but in my heart I know the truth.  I just don’t have the power to be the man I know God has called me to be.

Sound familiar?  No?  Oh, well…then I just feel silly.

Fortunately for me, God does not require me to supply the go-juice for my spiritual walk, any more than I had to redeem myself or find God on my own.  His is the power to get me where he wants me to go.  

He has made us many promises, Beloved.

And he has the power to back them up.

Happy Wednesday
