Verse from 2 Corinthians

“他对我说:「我的恩典够你用的,因为我的能力是在人的软弱上显得完全。」所以,我更喜欢夸自己的软弱,好叫基督的能力覆庇我。”
‭‭哥林多后书‬ ‭12:9‬

“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.”
‭‭2 Corinthians‬ ‭12:9‬ ‭

Our limitation, whatever it may be, is a gift from God, and it is with this gift that we are to serve Him. This gift and not another. This is true of all of us, whether our limits are emotional, physical, or intellectual.

Seeing our so-called liabilities this way enables us to go about our business with confidence and courage. Rather than complain, feel sorry for ourselves, or opt out, we make ourselves available to God for His intended purposes.

Our task today is just to accept things as they are and to be content, knowing that in the love, wisdom, and providence of God this moment is as good as it can possibly be.

Dear Lord,
I know that You are good and You love me.
I trust You to give me everything I need for today.
