God bless you! Still here am I blogging immense fully, trying at my best to scatter the exciting challenges which no less than the Lord Himself allowed and also making all the possibilities of answers that we should learn. He is not changing! Be still my dears, HE is still the Alpha & Omega, the sun and shield that provides and protects everybody who seek Him genuinely....
"My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness." 2 Cor. 12:9
Such is a powerful reminder of God's provision for you and me when we reach the end of our strength. Our limited being is so fragile and weak. Glory to God He is always there!
One great saint whose named Paul wrote these words while he was being harassed everywhere. He was mentioned to went by an evil spirit around that he referred to as "a thorn in the flesh." It was a messenger sent from Satan to hinder and to constantly harass him.
In his predicament, the constant harassment of this spirit finally got to him, and he begged God three times to take it away. Paul was clearly at the end of his rope. But, even though Paul prayed for God's intervention three times, the spirit did not depart. And God's response to Paul was the verse we read above. His strength is made perfect in weakness. Paul did relied on Lord's strength to overcome and indeed.., He did overcame for the glory of God.
What does perfect mean? It means that His power comes to full maturity…it grows and blossoms…it is fully expressed in our weakness.
Paul's response? He went on to say "Therefore most gladly I would rather boast in my infirmities that the power of Christ may rest upon me. Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in needs, in persecutions and distresses for Christ's sake. For when I am weak, then I am strong." found in verses 9–10 of that same chapter.

It seems that sometimes we have to get to the end of ourselves before we will look fully to God. But when we do, we find that He is more than enough. If you are there today or close to that point, take hold of God's strength. He is indeed more than more than more...... Let us discover His endless power, protection and provision to fully understand His purpose for our lives.
Put your trust in Him. He will bring you to the place of your breakthrough, and you will find the strength and direction you need.
VERSE-MEAL:
And God can give you more blessings than you need. Then you will always have plenty of everything enough to give to every good work. 2 Cor. 9:8 EXB
