2 Corinthians 12:9 Each time he said, “My grace is all you need. My power works best in weakness.” So now I am glad to boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ can work through

Two blog posts, this close together.. Woahhh now. Doing work so far in 2013.


Since I am doing this from my phone I cannot post a YouTube video so if you are reading this and want some jams, I suggest you listen to "Need You Now" by Plumb (here is the mobile link http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=zzikLM0NrfM)

But honestly, I love to write. I used to hate to write and it used to be one of my huge weaknesses. The cool part about it is that I don't decide when I write. I truly believe God place the words in my heart and my hands just go to work. I talk a lot, but I used to never be a writer. I was nervous to write and I just hated doing it. I love how God has been strengthening me and using, what was truly my biggest weakness, as an outlet for me.

Now that I like to write I do, but if I try to write or try to decide for myself I want to write... Nothing comes.
But when God tells me "write" the words flow to this computer screen (or this super fancy iPhone blogger app.. Thank you Google!)

Right now, some of my other weakness are being tried, challenged, and strengthened... Patience. Worry. Trust. Three things that I would love to say I don't struggle with but I don't like lyin.

I am in a place right now where I truly have to lean on God for His strength and guidance. I am thankful when I have a smile on my face and thankful when I have a heavy heart because I have seen God take a weakness of mine and make it stronger. I have seen what He has done with just one thing, my writing... And now I get the opportunity to see how He strengthens and works with three things. I cannot wait to see how I grow closer to Him as He works in my life.

I have a feeling my mind is about to be blown.

Is there something you're struggling with... A weakness you have that you think can never be used... That you'll never get over or it's just really knocking you down?

Maybe just maybe God is bringing it to your attention for a reason. Maybe He is working as you struggle. Are you going to open up and let Him work or keep struggling with a weakness that He tells us He can use to work trough you...?

As scary as it is, let go and let Him work.
