  • Weakness the great opportunity

    What is a weakness?  Society says it's something to be avoided, not admitted, or even recognized.  However, we learn in scripture that weakness is an opportunity - an opportunity for God to work in our lives.  Whatever you are struggling with God, with it to God.   Also, Jesus the opportunity to heal you and strengthen you.  Allow the Holy Spirit to work in your prayer.  In our most difficult struggles, we will see the greatest gains made not only in our strength but in our own relationships with the Trinity.
