WEAKNESSES SHOW THE POWER THAT ACTS IN US

The Lord needs my weakness. Paradoxically, the Lord needs more of our weakness than of our power. For what reason? Because our power could become rather its rival. Those who consider themselves self-sufficient simply tell God they do not need your help. But how different it is to think that my own weaknesses constitute true servants of him. When we do this, we depend on their resources and manifest their glory. Throughout history it has been discovered that man's need is God's opportunity. But on the other hand, the security of man himself is the opportunity for Satan. The way God works is not to put the believer out of the trials, but, in any case, to give him a special power to withstand the trials. Someone has said that "God often takes good from the bad so that the reproaches of our enemies protect us from pride". Weaknesses will prevent us from exalting ourselves excessively. God used the weakness of men to reveal his greatness. Turn your weakness into an instrument of blessing!
