Lord, when I’m strong,
my faith is weak
and Your will
I do not seek.
For, on my own,
I think I can do it
and I make no time
to wait and sit.
I believe I know,
what I’m to do
so I rush off Lord
without You.
But, when I am weak,
my faith is strong
and I seek Your face
all day long.
For, when I admit,
alone, I can’t do it
it’s when I’m lead
by Your Spirit!
~~~~~
“For when I am weak,
then am I strong.”

Today’s Verse ~ Bible Gateway
I believe in God,
in all of His glorious creation
I believe He made the heavens
and the earth's foundation.
I believe that man,
came from but dust
I believe it's God's image
He puts into all of us.
I believe that Satan,
is the cause for our fallen state
I believe it's still his lies
he uses on us to trap and bait.
I believe that man's heart,
has always been cold and callous
I believe it's full of deceit
filled with ungodly malice.
I believe in Jesus,
God's only begotten Son
I believe He died and rose again
for the sins of everyone.
I believe in redemption,
from our wicked, evil ways
I believe it's the blood of the Lamb
that washes our sins away.
I believe in God's love,
I believe in His grace
I believe one day
God's judgement all will face.
I believe in Heaven,
I also believe in hell . . .
I believe for eternity it's where
the unsaved will dwell.
I believe in the hope,
Jesus imparts in me
I believe all can be saved
if these truth they'd just see!

Peter 3:15
King James Version
"But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts:
and be ready always to give an answer to
every man that asketh you a reason of the hope
that is in you with meekness and fear:"

I will not be shaken,
nothing can rattle me
not even my own death
will take me, Lord from Thee.
I will not tremble,
I have nothing to fear
even if I'm all alone
God is always near.
I will not waiver,
on my Rock, I will stand
if I was to stumble
in His grace I will land.
I will not be moved,
nothing can take away
the love I have for Jesus
from His ways I'll not stray.
I will not be shaken,
nothing will take from me
the peace, faith and hope
I have dear Lord, in Thee!

Psalm 62:1-2
"Truly my soul waiteth upon God:
from him cometh my salvation.

he is my defence; I shall not be greatly moved."

I am God's hope
I am alive to God
I am destined
I am called

I am redeemed
I am set free from sin
I am joined to the Lord
I am alive by grace

I am sanctified
I am reconciled
I am transformed
I am renewed
I am made perfect
I am dead to sin

I am crucified with Christ
I am not ashamed
I am a sinner
I am forgiven
I am born again
and I am going to heaven!
Who are you without Christ?

Yes, our reliance on Him is an essential element of our faith. For without Him I know I can do nothing that will bring Him glory! ~ Have a blessed day with Jesus ~

This poem describes my last month beautifully. It’s wonderful to be led by the Spirit, but it often comes through times of weakness and human frailty.

You are so right David . . . weakness to the world is a source of failure . . . to God it is the source of our strength. Amen and Amen . . . let us remain weak for His sake 🙂

Great poem! I love that his strength is made perfect in our weakness. May we have the courage to admit when we’re feeling alone and vulnerable, and allow the love of God to comfort us.

Our weaknesses are not the problem, our problem comes from not going to God for our strength and turning to the things of the world instead!
When I admit to myself I cannot do it, that is when I know God can and will!! ~ Blessings ~
