“For indeed He was crucified because of weakness, yet He lives because of the power of God. For we also are weak in Him, yet we will live with Him because of the power of God directed toward you” (2 Corinthians 13:4).
Humanity is weak. We may think we’re strong and many act as if they were, but we were created to be dependent. We are dependent upon the power of God and His provision. Live then in the power of God directed to you through the One who was resurrected from the dead. Be guided by the truth of the eternal life He gives for the sake of all. In Him is light, life, and true peace.
Lord, help me to see beyond the troubles of this world. Guide me in Your goodness to know that in You is all hope. Lead me into the future You have in mind knowing that in You alone do we have our being. Guide me, Lord, that I may trust in Your power alone and be led by You alone for Your purpose alone. Help me through all of the weakness I have to become strong in You.
Lord Jesus, You have come that we may have new life. You were resurrected that we may have the resurrection. You are the model to which we may be conformed. Guide me, Lord, in the way of life that I may now and always live according to Your purposes. Help me through those obstacles that get in the way that in my weakness, Your strength may always prevail in resurrecting me to new life. Amen.
