Our weakness provides him with a pathway to work, God never sees our weakness as a problem. When we surrender to Him, soak up the grace that He offers, and rest in Him, then we are able to experience His power. His grace is sufficient for us, and His power is made perfect in our weakness.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Our weaknesses create space for God\u2019s power. They remind us we need Him, and that\u2019s a good place to be. I don\u2019t know where this post finds you today, but I want you to know that the God of the Bible promises His faithfulness.
