God’s Grace is Always Enough

Scripture: 2 Corinthians 12: [9] But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me.

Observation: I realize I don’t boast about my weakness, but hide it from others. I want to be thought well by others so I try to handle things in my own power, without realizing I have no power apart from God. When I fail, which is often, God always extends His grace in my life and pulls me out.

Application: I need to admit my weakness and when I do have the ability to do something good that it comes from God. Allow God to work through me to touch the lives of those around me. Show I can do all things only through Christ, who strengthens me.

Prayer: Dear Lord humble your servant and open my eyes to what you desire of me. May I be humble in front of others so that your power can be shown through your servant.
