All that I am Not, He is

                           

What to share...

When my strength is gone...God's is all powerful. 

When my resources have dried up...God is my provider and He owns it all.

When I am out of love...God is abounding in love.

When my patience is gone...God is all patient.

When I am ticked...God is slow to anger.

When exhaustion takes over...God never slumbers or sleeps.

When I don't know how...God is all knowing. 

I am learning to exist at His feet. If God doesn't do it, it ain't happening! 

There's a strange freedom in that fact once it's written down. Left to myself, I'll mess everything up. I have faith that I am not left to myself but God is the one who is in control of all that concerns me. 

If I have a strength, I guess it would be that I know I am weak. 

If I have a strength, I guess it would be that I know Who to go to for help. 

"Glory in his holy name;
let the hearts of those who seek the Lord rejoice.
Look to the Lord and his strength;
seek his face always." 

1 Chronicles 16:10-11

  1. Just what I needed today. I am soooo . . .weak; my strength is gone; I'm out of love and patience; I'm exhausted. It is only by the Lord's grace and strength that I am putting one foot in front of the other.
