2 Corinthians 12:8-10 “Concerning this I implored the Lord three
times that it might leave me. And He has said to me, “My grace is
sufficient for you, for power is perfected in weakness.” Most gladly,
therefore, I will rather boast about my weaknesses, so that the power
of Christ may dwell in me. Therefore I am well content with weaknesses,
with insults, with distresses, with persecutions, with difficulties, for
Christ’s sake; for when I am weak, then I am strong.” (NASB)
Hello,
I have been reminded lately about how hard we search for
things. We search for meaning, we search for purpose, we search for confidence
and affirmation. But where are we searching? The trap we fall into: We think we
see it in other people, and guess where theirs comes from…and then look to get
it there too. That person has a great job, I should change mine. That person
goes on awesome trips, I will chase money to be able to do that.
The list goes on….the problem is, none of that will end up
providing what we are deeply looking for. Our source for those things is not so
far out of reach – we just have to look up. Spend time with Him, prayer and in
His Word….it is the only way to find what we are looking for.
Have a blessed day,
