Learning and Understanding His Ways2/22/1997Help me God to realize that, like Jacob, it is in being crippled that i learn to cling, and in limping that i learn to lean... that victory comes not in how courageously i struggle, but in how completely i surrender...Help me to learn that this is how i am to grow, by being defeated by You, decisively...Help me to understand that Your power is perfected in weakness, so that when Im rendered weak, You are given the opportunity to be shown strong. ______________I have just had one of those kinds of days where I feel battered, beaten, and tossed about. One of those days where I just kind of want to run away from the pounding of my own thoughts...and then the LORD had me come across this. All I can say or add to this thought shared from one believer to another is YES!! And AMEN!! God bless maryjane
