“And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness…” (2 Corinthians 12:9a).
No matter how long we have been a Christian, we have all faced times of sickness, suffering, and grief. We wonder how we can press on and may even question, “Where are you God?” It’s during those difficult times when we must draw strength from the Lord. When we try to do anything in our own strength, we only add to our misery. Through years of affliction and adversity I have learned the truth of another scripture found in John 15:5b “…for without me ye can do nothing.” We must empty ourselves and allow Him to fill us with His strength and grace to help us handle whatever circumstances we face. Every time we allow Him to do this, our faith will grow. We will remember all those times He was there for us and draw from His well of grace to help us face tough times again.
