sometimes

Sometimes we know we need to change, but it’s hard to find the strength, the resolve. Maybe it’s a bad habit or addiction that we just can’t seem to kick, or a good habit that we need to start. Unfortunately, if you’re like me you may tend to rely on yourself instead of Him.

It’s when I reach that low point — the "I don’t know what I’m doing or how I’ll get through this. Please help me" moment — that relief flows even before I see God’s mercy in action. Blessings are found just in the letting go and acknowledging His control. {I imagine God smiling down at this point and thinking, “Finally. She gets it.”}

The Lord says, “My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness”. (2 Corinthians 12:9) How can I glorify God if I rely on my own strength?

Simply, I can’t.

The power of Jesus Christ works through our weakness.

What about you? Do you have something that you need to let go of and hand over to Him? Remember, you may struggle with sin, but Jesus Christ doesn’t, and he lives inside of you.
