Humble yourselves, then, under God's mighty hand, so that he will lift you up in his own good time. And after you have suffered for a little while, the God of all grace, who calls you to share his eternal glory in union with Christ, will himself perfect you and give you firmness, strength, and a sure foundation. To him be the power for ever! Amen.
1 Peter 5:6, 10-11 GNBDK
Reflection:
Power can only be with one and it's best that we stop thinking of ourselves as powerful, for we are just mortals. Peter denied Jesus, yet that didn't change Jesus's love for him, instead Jesus prayed for him. Paul had a thorn in his flesh, yet was grateful to God for grace to endure it. Let us then, acknowledge all our weaknesses to our all knowing, all loving and all powerful God and his grace will suffice.
Prayer:
I pray that God our Father gives you the grace to humble and accepting of all your weaknesses. May Jesus Christ his son be your hope, help and source of grace. And may the presence of his Holy Spirit in your life be a constant reminder of God's unconditional love for you. Amen
God Bless you and your loved ones :)
