Trust His Strength
For he knows our frame; he remembers that we are dust. (Psalm 103:14)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
You know who truly is an encouragement to other believers? It's people who struggle like you and me, and no longer hide it. Rather, they share the hope that is ours in Jesus. Boast all the more gladly of your weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest upon you. (see 2Cor 12:9)
Maybe it's not about our weaknesses... do you think that it's so that we set our hearts on Jesus? Finally, my brothers, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his might. (Eph 6:10) Let's pray.
Lord, when I try to be strong, I'm troubled by my own weakness. Help each of us to turn to you, to give you all our cares, to trust in you.
Thank you for remembering that we are only made from dust, and for loving each one of us. Thank you for being our help. Help us surrender all to you and enter into your rest. Amen.
Today's very great and precious promise
Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. (Matthew 5:3)
We have God's Word on it.
