Greetings to all, on this Tuesday, may each of us strive to live our best by being better and stronger as we wait on the Lord.
We often don't understand God's plan for our lives and think that there needs to be a change in our lives to be better or stronger. Instead, we need to wait on the Lord, and He will strengthen us.
Psalm 27:14 (NKJV)
14 Wait on the LORD; Be of good courage, And He shall strengthen your heart; Wait, I say, on the Lord!
We are quick to ask God to change or remove any obstructions or difficulties that make us feel like things are not working out or going our way. But, each day, we must choose to depend on spiritual strength from the Lord that makes us better and stronger.
2 Corinthians 12:8-10 (NKJV)
8 Concerning this thing, I pleaded with the Lord three times that it might depart from me.
9 And He said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness." Therefore most gladly, I will rather boast in my infirmities that the power of Christ may rest upon me.
10 Therefore, I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in needs, in persecutions, in distresses, for Christ's sake. For when I am weak, then I am strong.
Lesson: God gives us the grace to bear obstructions and difficulties in our lives to reveal our strength and prove that we are better and stronger in our weakness when relying on His strength.
