More over will I glory in my infirmities for when I am weak you are strong!
When I can't God can! What a powerful thought...in 1 Corinthians Paul reminds them that he did not come with persuasive words but in the power of God. When I don't know what to do God knows. Paul goes on to say the the wisdom of this world is foolishness to God for God has choosen the foolish things of this world to confound the wise. Finally, Paul says that he will glory in (take pride in) is his weakness so that God may demonstrate his strength and power. As a husband, father, teacher, coach, or mentor I have often felt that I had something to offer others around me in the way of counsel or wisedom. The Word tells me that the best I have is filthy rags before God. May I empty myself of ME and be filled with HIM so that those around me will be attracted to God working in me. Whoa to the man who trust in HIMSELF rather than God, but instead pray without ceasing and in everything give thanks.
May I learn and remember to say with Paul that I too glory in my weaknesses so that the power of God may be manifest in my being.
