Whenever I get a cold, it makes me physically weak. Yet, that is when I have lots of quiet time to spend with God, and that makes me stronger spiritually. When we realize we are weak, we rely more on God. God gives us a ~ different kind of strength, a spiritual strength. It means we are stronger in the things that matter to God. He wants us to grow stronger spiritually just as much as he wants us to have healthy, strong bodies. The Bible says there were many saints of long ago that out of weakness were made strong. (Hebrews 11:34)
The apostle Paul said for when I am weak, then I am strong. When we let God take charge of our life, we willingly become weak to our own desires so God can do great things through us. If we think we are big shots and really important, our minds trick us into thinking we are more important than we really are. If we are humble and yield ourselves to God, He can use us to be a loving, caring person for Jesus. Let's decide today that we will get ourselves in shape spiritually and be strong for God. God Loves us and always listens !!!!
