16 March 2017 – Weakness Is Strength

The title of today’s blog may seem a little confusing when you read it, Weakness Is Strength.
How in the world can my weakness be defined as strength?
In the natural, it is very difficult to grasp this because weakness and strength are two words that are polar opposite.
When I’m lifting heavy weights I feel strength and I feel weak when I can’t lift them.
So why would I sit here and tell you that weakness is strength?

Because it’s in your weakest moments, those moments where you feel completely broken down, that God is able to strengthen you.
The struggles you are facing, the situation you can’t seem to overcome, the health issues that plague you leave you feeling weak.
But these are the moments when He wants to show you how much He loves you, these are the moments He wants to show you how incredibly strong you truly are.
It’s in your weakness, when you can no longer do it alone, that He reveals to you strength you never knew was within you.
It’s in your weakness that you find out who you truly are and who He truly is.

Too often we believe that showing any sign of weakness is a negative thing that we should never do,
You have been conditioned to believe that you have to be strong at all times or risk being labeled as weak.
I’m here to tell you to embrace those areas where you are weak, acknowledge them, don’t give up, and ask God to pour into you strength that only He can provide.
Once you see yourself overcome these obstacles you will feel a boldness within you that wasn’t there before.
You will realize that in your weakness is where God can transform your life.
You will see that your weakness is strength!

Truth In Love! ~ Chuck
