In My Weakness... He Is Strong
I will forever remember February 2008. It was the first time LIFE came crashing in on me!
(1)At the beginning of the month, I had my fourth and worst sinus infection yet.
(2)About a week after that, I totaled my car.
(3)And to top it all off, a week after that, over half of the carpeting in my apartment was saturated with toilet and shower drain water, and I ended up moving out.
For about two weeks, I was making major life changes. To help you understand this situation a little better, I'll explain a little about myself: I DO NOT HANDLE CHANGE WELL... at first. :)
The day that I was in the car accident, I was supposed to sing in church that evening. That song was put off until last Sunday. But, I'm kind-of glad it was, because I think it meant more to me as I sang it this time.
Here's the song I got to sing:
IN MY WEAKNESS
Verse One:
When living life for Jesus Christ becomes too hard a task
When obedience means sacrifice that seems too much to ask
That's when I learn that my own strength isn't really strength at all
And I find rest in humbleness when I surrender all
Verse Two:
When failures in my human strength have weakened all my pride
When ruined hope and fallen dreams have crumbled me inside
It's then by faith I finally see my strength in Jesus Christ
His victory is thrilling me as weakness fills my life
Chorus:
In my weakness... He is strong...
In my need He leads me on...
When I come to the end of all I am
And I place my trust in Him...
That's when His strength begins...
In my weakness
The whole time before the song, I was praying that it would be a blessing to several of the people listening. I think that prayer was answered- I heard many "amen"s afterward. Not only that, but I've never had so many people HUG me for singing a special! :D
God is so good... He's always good.
