Grow strong in your weakness. Some of my children I’ve gifted with abundant strength and stamina. Others, like you, have received the humble gift of frailty. Your fragility is not a punishment, nor does it indicate lack of faith. On the contrary, weak ones like you must live by faith, depending on Me to get you through the day. I am developing your ability to trust Me, to lean on Me, rather than on your understanding. Your natural preference is to plan out your day, knowing what will happen when. My preference is for you to depend on Me continually, trusting Me to guide you and strengthen you as needed. This is how you grow strong in your weakness.

Those were profound words. Thanks for sharing that teaching, it blessed my day. There is nothing that bless's a mother's heart then
her children sharing opening their faith in God.
love you,
mom
I read this one in my copy, Sarah. Good stuff. Love you!
