On several occasions when I was going through very difficult times in my life, I became so upset at myself for feeling weak, sad, and very anxious. I kept thinking that if I were a good Christian, I wouldn't feel so weak. It has taken various pastors to remind me that I AM human - and our Lord understands those feelings during challenging times!
All of today's scriptures are so powerful but my favorite is the one from 2 Corinthians 12:9. The NIV says, "My grace is sufficient for you; my Power is made perfect in weakness." The first time I truly focused on that passage, God's acceptance of me with all my weaknesses became clear! I praise Him for His acceptance of my weaknesses and the promise that He uses these as openings for His light to shine in and through me.
