I was really struck by one of the ideas from this weekend, about God's power made perfect in our weakness.

“My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me. 2 Corinthians 12:9

I just pray that I can learn how to be weak in the Lord so that He can do the mighty things through me. Learning to yield to His will and purpose instead of "self" is incredibly difficult, considering our sinful nature and constant focus on self. This week and even during the weekend I struggled with physical weakness, succumbing to a cold and cough made me aware of my hopeless physical state without the power of Jesus in me. When I can just rest in Him and not worry about what I am not getting done, I know that is more important.
