When I am weak

Join me as I contemplate how God’s presence helps us lay aside our desire to do enough to earn status and value.  We can trade this attempt at self-sufficiency for God’s sufficient grace that meets our weakness.   We don’t have to hide our weakness, God’s grace is enough! We can trust God to turn our hearts to Him and use us our despite our weaknesses.  We can trust Him that spending time in God’s presence will overflow into our lives.   Click here for a full transcript of the show. Journaling Questions:·      Do you try to make sacrifices in your own strength?  Do you try to achieve or be sufficient in your own strength?·      Are God’s invitations to rest and rely on Him enough to turn your heart to him?·      What are the areas where you have sought your own way or agenda?·      Do you try to hide your weaknesses or make up for them with achievements?·      Would you be willing to pray for yourself or a loved one that God would do what it takes to turn your heart to Him and/or that His words would be enough? ·      What is your plan for sitting in God’s presence and letting him fill you?Looking for a tool to help you engage more in God’s word?
