You Are a Blessing

I remember times in my life when I definitely felt like a screwup and times when I certainly did screw up, but for a believer in Christ, we can believe what God, and His words say about us. In Him we move and breathe!

Children are a blessing from the Lord. Psalm 127:3

We are chosen and dearly loved. Colossians 3:12

We are a child of God. Romans 8:6

I am forgiven. Psalm 103:12

I don’t know about you, but sometimes I need to hear God call me names. The names He calls me by are always better than the names I call myself!

It Is Written

2 CORINTHIANS 12:9 And He has said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for power is perfected in weakness.” Most gladly, therefore, I will rather boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may dwell in me.

Christ in Us!

The truth is, I don’t have to have it all together, know all the answers, or be the savior of the world. He already is! His strength is available to us and is magnified most in our weakness. He favors the humble. Humbling ourselves and asking for His grace to fill us teaches us that our sufficiency is in Him, not in ourselves.

Prayer

Lord, thank You that I do not have to be all things to all people. I thank You that there is only one Savior, and I am not Him. I thank You that You are always enough. I humbly yield myself to You.

Takeaway

He is more than enough!
