GOD's strength is made perfect in weakness. ~ (2 Corinthians 12:9)

We feel the manifestation of God's power more when we are weak, or almost giving up. Why is this?  It is so because God desires for us to see Him as the Source of our blessings and salvation. 

When we feel we are strong enough to do things ourselves, we do not recognize the need for divine help. When we are weak, we are strong by the Grace of God. As His creatures, we will always be limited in strength and compelled to depend on Him. It is only when we acknowledge that we need Him in our weakness that He will show Himself strong.

JESUS CHRIST is a High Priest who is able to sympathize with our weaknesses; who was tempted in every way just as we are, yet was without sin. ~ (Hebrews 4:15)

Jesus Christ knows what it is like when things are not well with us. He once felt what we feel, and understands when we are hurt. He knows what it is like to be hungry (Mark 11:12-14); He felt hunger pangs. He knows what it is like to be tempted, betrayed, disgraced, persecuted, and falsely accused of an offence. We can boldly approach the throne of grace to seek for help and pardon when we struggle with sins. He will sympathize with us in our weaknesses, trials and miseries. The important thing is to admit our faults, and recognize that we need help.

How Can I Receive Jesus Christ As My Lord and Saviour, Today?
