“What makes me weak is also what makes me powerful…”
I’m not sure if I got that line from one of Pastor Stevens
sermons or not, but it’s been running around in my head for the past few days.
In life, I tend to strive for perfection and nothing is ever
good enough. I get mad at myself for failing or not living up to what I think
should have happened. I look too far ahead, over think and scare myself out of
situations…
I plan & prepare so much that I leave no room to be
available when God wants to use me with something unexpected…& I over think
EVERYTHING… to the point that I drive myself insane going around in the same
circles.
BUT…
What makes me weak can also make me powerful!
My passion & my need for perfection, my ability to see
far ahead, to plan, to over think in detail… all are great things for starting
my non-profit (SOUL 139)
To have that passionate drive keeps me going to strive for
perfection in how I deliver things. To see the final goal that I want to reach
for helps me persevere. To plan ahead and be prepared is what keeps things in
order and moving. To think about the small details that most forget about is
what makes SOUL 139 what it is…these all can be weaknesses when used in the
wrong way, but God instilled them as strengths in me when used the way He
intended.
What kind of things do you look at as weaknesses in
you? God wants you to see them as
treasured strengths that He placed in you
