"I asked God for strength, that I might achieve, I was made weak, that I might humbly obey. I asked for health, that I might do greater things, I was given infirmity, that I might do better things. I asked for riches, that I might be happy, I was given poverty, that I might be wise. I asked for power, that I might have the praise of men, I was given weakness, that I might feel the need of God. I asked for all things, that I might enjoy life, I was given life, that I might enjoy all things. I got nothing that I asked for, but everything I had hoped for. Almost despite myself, my unspoken prayers were answered. I am among all men, most richly blessed." ~ Unknown
"I will boast about this person, but not about myself, except of my weaknesses. for if I want to boast, I will not be a fool, because I will be telling the truth. But I will spare you, so that no one can credit me with something beyond what he sees in me or hears from me, especially because of the extraordinary revelations. Therefore, so that I would not exalt myself, a thorn in the flesh was given to me, a messenger of Satan to torment me so I would not exalt myself. Concerning this, I pleaded with the Lord three times to take it away from me. But He said to me, 'My grace is sufficient for you, for power is perfected in weakness.' Therefore, I will most gladly boast all the more about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may reside in me. So because of Christ, I am pleased in weakness, in insults, in catastrophes, in persecutions, and in pressures. For when I am weak, then I am strong." ~ 2 Corinthians 12:5-10
God is sooooo faithful to me!!! He ALWAYS provides for me, no matter what!!! I am currently 2 months into my year of no dating and He is just teaching me so much about loving Him, pursuing Him, and developing me into the woman He wants me to be! I don’t have the room (or the time) to write it all but it’s been awesome!
I love you all!! Have a great week!!
