When I am weak, He is strong. When I am exhausted, He is my power to carry on. When I am overwhelmed, He is peace to calm my mind. When a voice inside my head cries, “you must get it right and be perfect,” He sees my potential instead of my failure. When I grieve the one that is slowly fading from my sight, He carries me through the pain of loss. When I ache for one more chance to not make the same mistake, He grants my request. Each time that He says, “My grace is all you need,” I lean more on Him. Each time that He says, “My power works best in weakness”, I rejoice that in my weakness His power is revealed—changing and shaping my life (2 Corinthians 12:9). It is when I know that I can’t that I realize He is enough.

Enough
When I am weak, He is strong. When I am exhausted, He is my power to carry on. When I am overwhelmed, He is peace to calm my mind. When a voice inside my head cries, “you must get it right and be perfect,” He sees my potential instead of my failure. When I grieve the one that is slowly fading from my sight, He carries me through the pain of loss. When I ache for one more chance to not make the same mistake, He grants my request. Each time that He says, “My grace is all you need,” I lean more on Him. Each time that He says, “My power works best in weakness”, I rejoice that in my weakness His power is revealed—changing and shaping my life (2 Corinthians 12:9). It is when I know that I can’t that I realize He is enough.
