Set my eyes on You

"My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness."
2 Corinthians 12:9

What am I going to do about weakness? I feel so weak and what happen if my friends find out? People scare to expose their weakness because society taught us that we need to be strong in order to survive but yet the God tell us the opposite.

Today, God is telling that is ok to be weak. It doesn't mean that you are weak and God will love you lesser or He won't use you. Is wrong to have this kind of thinking. I was once like this and keep telling myself that I am such a weakling and God won't use me. Here again God remind us that His grace is sufficient for us. His strength is made perfect in our weakness. What an encouraging words from God, Himself.

When you are weak, you will feel humble. Only those moment you will only began to learn to trust Him. God wants you to be humble but not timid because God always wanted to give us the honour to serve Him. God knows your every need and God see what is in your heart but man only look at the outward appearance( 1 Samuel 16:7). People want the best skilled man to work for them but God only want a who is willing to humble because God doesn't look at your incapabilities. God use you for who you are as a whole and not only your strength.

Let this verse be your prayer for today and ask God to use you. Set your eyes on God and not on your weakness because when your eyes on God; you will began to see what can do in your life but if your eyes on your weakness, you will only see yourself as failure. When I set my eyes on Him, my life began to change. God keep sprung me with surprises, one after another.

Prayer:
O Lord, help me to set my eyes on your rather than my weaknesses for I know your grace is more than sufficient for me. Use me and let me have this honour to serve because your are a loving God who looks at my heart and not my physical appearance. Amen.
