Good morning Friend!
Today's meditation is taken from:
Letter to a Reluctant Prophet
by Chip Brogden
http://www.theschoolofchrist.org/articles/reluctant.html
"My grace is sufficient for you: for My strength is made perfect in weakness" (II Corinthians 12:9a).
If you want to boast, take pride in the things that make you weak, for when you are weak, you are strong - in Him. Be afraid of the praise and acceptance of others, for they are the fertilizer for the self-important and grandiose thoughts that are yours by nature anyway, which spring up in the shallow ground of your carnal mind. Carry about the Death of the Lord so you may have the Life of the Lord. Be ready to suffer with Him, that you may reign with Him.
--------------------
The HEART of the issue is truly the issue of the HEART!
John 3:3;Mark 8:34-38;James 1:27
