I was reading in my Joyce Meyer bible... one that she wrote little comments and insights around scriptures, and came across a really profound quote. It was in the first chapter of Peter 4... It's about being reproached when living a life for Christ and how we are to die to self so that He can truly live in us. Well she writes and I quote " If you ask Him, Jesus, He will take your mess and turn it into your ministery. When the Spirit of glory is upon you, you can help others who face the same kinds of things God has helped you overcome. Your burden can become your blessing, and you weakness can become your weapon." YOUR BURDEN CAN BECOME YOUR BLESSING, AND YOUR WEAKNESS YOUR WEAPON... I feel that I need to chew on that little nugget for a while! hmmm.. What r my weaknesses? I'm sure I have a zillion that other people see.. but I'm going to pray and ask the Lord to reveal them to me.. because what a neat concept to know tha tthey could potentially be a weapon!!!
