Weakness


For the last two weeks I have really been struggling with some deep rooted stuff. And through all of that what I have learned about God is that he loves me through all of my failures, imperfections, and even the days that I totally reject him...or secretly desire to. Even knowing all of this is in my heart I have never felt more loved by him in all my life. What I have finally seen is that all he asks of me is to stand before him in my inability to accomplish anything apart from him and be weak so that he can accomplish and be the strength in me. I have never known a love like his.

So this drawing is me submitting all the things that I continually try to fix or be better at in my life, to the only one who can truly permanently change them.

So the verse here is 2Corinthians 12:9-10 for anyone who is interested.

"But he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Therefore, I will boast all the more gladly in my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest upon me. For the sake of Christ then I am content with weaknesses, insults, hardships, and calamaties. For when I am weak, then I am strong."
