I am a slow learner sometimes. And sometimes it just takes me struggling with an issue and allowing God to sink that truth into my heart! I think I finally had one of those aha moments today!
We had a friend that sent us the devotional book Jesus Calling by Sarah Young. Over and over again, while reading the daily devotional God has spoken much comfort to my heart. A portion from today's devotion did just that! "Your weakness is not a deterrent to being filled with My Spirit; on the contrary, it provides an opportunity for My Power to shine forth more brightly...Don't waste energy wondering whether you are adequate for today's journey. My Spirit within you is more than sufficient to handle whatever this day may bring."
I think I have expressed on more than occasion my inadequacy to lead because I have felt so broken over the past year. And that is not to say that sometimes, one doesn't need to step from positions to allow time for God to work in their hearts. My feelings of inadequacy are often based in my flesh thinking! Maybe God is trying to remind me that my weakness is not a deterrent to being filled with Him!
