Weakness and strength...

Dear God~
Weakness.  It's not a feeling I enjoy.
I am tired.
I have been ill much too long.
I have too much to do.
I have loved ones to take care of now and later.
I have lost precious time trying to recover.
There are multiple projects surrounding me.
Perhaps I should share once more than I am a driven person.
Weakness is not allowing me to be that driven person.
My spirit remains quite young.
My body does not understand nor agree with that young spirit.
Weakness is not on my to-do list.
Yet weakness...teaches me.

May I listen to You, lean on You, trust You.
May my weakness bring me closer to You.
May my weakness remind me of Your strength.
May my weakness honor Your power, grace and love.  ♥~thl

"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.  That is why, for Christ's sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties.  For when I am weak, then I am strong."  2 Corinthians 12: 9>10
