Mental Health:We are all on a journey.

Did you know the Bible says that apostle Paul suffered from a “thorn in his side” that he asked God to remove more than once? (2 Corinthians 12:7-8)

While we don’t know what that thorn was for him, I know what mine is: anxiety. Irrational thinking, overwhelming feelings, doubt, fear, nervousness, the inability to make plans

. In 2 corinthians 12:9 the Lord promised Paul that his weakness was a perfect place for the Lord to demonstrate his power and grace that WILL sustain us! I want to shout out my weaknesses because within those weak times and moments in my life, which sometimes come unendingly, I can FULLY experience the Lords strength and grace.

Maybe this is a lifelong thing, maybe it’s just a season. All the better because in these moments, months, years and decades you will experience HIS perfect grace and power.

In verse 10 Paul says “therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me”. So go ahead… tell people about those weaknesses in your life so they can SEE how the Lord is delivering you! Moment by moment and day by day he keeps you and sustains you!
