Greetings to all, on this "hump" day Wednesday, I pray that overcoming some of the pain in our lives will lead us to trust more in God and empower us to believe in ourselves. Amen
God's power is within each of us, making us so much stronger and wiser than we give ourselves credit for. We often find ourselves surrendering to pain and despair because we underestimate the power of God within us, who He says we are, and allow the opinions of others to put a price tag on lives, ability, and overall worth.
Ephesians 2:10 (TLB)
10 It is God himself who has made us what we are and given us new lives from Christ Jesus; and long ages ago he planned that we should spend these lives in helping others.
Because we belong to God, He is always with us and has equipped us to go through and overcome any pain and despair. We will see our worth when we trust and believe who He says we are in His word.
2 Corinthians 4:7 (MSG)
7 If you only look at us, you might well miss the brightness. We carry this precious Message around in the unadorned clay pots of our ordinary lives. That's to prevent anyone from confusing God's incomparable power with us.
Lesson: Seeing our worth is knowing that we are earthen vessels, treasures of God. He desires that we live and be a part of the plans that He has for each of us.
