Call upon His Name!&nbsp;#Blog]]></title><type><![CDATA[link]]></type><html><![CDATA[<p>I was reminded today of this verse: 2 Corinthians 12:9,&#8221;And He said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness&#8230;”<br />
With each passing year, I hear from more and more friends, relative and acquaintances that they are coming down with bizarre and completely unexpected illnesses&#8230;just out of the blue. Maybe this has happened in your life, or to your family as well.<br />
Truly in these situations people oftentimes have no idea what to say, so they blurt out the first plausible thing that comes to them. &#8220;Stay strong.&#8221; &#8220;You&#8217;ll be fine.&#8221; &#8220;This too shall pass.&#8221;</p>
<p>From experience, I can tell you that when you are in the driver&#8217;s seat with a horrible disease, none of these things are comforting. Just tell someone you will be praying for them. That&#8217;s all you really need to say. And that&#8217;s the very best thing you could possibly do. Nobody is expecting you to be Shakespeare.</p>
<p>If you have reached a point in your life where you feel like you&#8217;re about to crack in half, like the next feather to hit your eyelash will make you shatter into a thousand tiny pieces&#8230;know that that is absolutely OK.<br />
Sometimes it takes us getting to the very end of our human limitations to push us to a place where we completely surrender to God. I wish we weren&#8217;t so stubborn, but I&#8217;m certainly guilty of this on occasion myself. I want to do everything for myself. This way I don&#8217;t bother anyone else, and I know the job will get done to my satisfaction.</p>
<p>But God says to call upon him, to seek him with our whole hearts&#8230;to allow him to be our burden bearer. And we do the exact opposite. We carry tremendous loads we were never intended to carry.</p>
<p>So, if you are in a place right now where the load is heavy and the outlook is bleak from a human perspective&#8230;.call upon his name. When we are at our weakest point is when he does his very best work.</p>
<p>Happy Friday Friends!</p>
