But he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on me. 2 Corinthians 12:9
This is the first thing I thought about this morning when I woke up. Well after thinking Man I have to pee, But Honestly! As I got up and made breakfast for my new Hubby (yes, I know I have so much to share) I continued to think, My Grace is sufficient for you. What a thought.
I took the time to look up the verse today, and I read it, I read it out loud, I read it quietly to myself, But reading it like a question, My grace is sufficient for you? For my power is made perfect in weakness?..... My weakness, He is made perfect in my weakness.
I smile at myself because right now in my little life, I am trying to figure out how to be wife, create a beautiful castle to live in, and find a job. There are days that I feel like I am in a fog, not a bad fog, but a fog. A fog that I am so consumed in with messing up, not finding a job, finding a job, a job that I love, burning every meal I make on our gas stove, making sure the house is organized. Making sure that daisy is happy, and then it hit me That's it! That is what God was trying to whisper in my ear this morning...
"My grace is Sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness"
God was saying silly child don't you see or understand "My Grace is sufficient for you and my power is made perfect in your weakness, So come spend time with me, and I will fill your heart, and clear your mind.
What a blessed peaceful reminder, that when we are caught up in the moment, sometimes feeling weak, overwhelmed and tired that God is saying "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in your weakness".
So this is my little happy thought for today,

p.s. Don't let this post make it seem that marriage is overwhelming, although it may be overwhelming and tiring, it is also rewarding if your relationship is Christ focus. My hubby and I are having a fabulous time being married, but just like any change, or life in general, you are still going to have struggles.
