Living with limitations

2 Cor. 12 [The Message]

We all have them. Limitations, weaknesses, infirmities etc. Paul certainly had them and saw them as God’s devices to keep him humble.

If we think the Christian life is all smooth sailing with never a hitch, we are sadly mistaken. The Christina’s life can even be one of the most challenging, yet with a support system and reward that FAR OUTWEIGHS the downside.

Jesus Himself told Paul, ‘Your limitations are merely perfect opportunities for MY GRACE to be received and appreciated.” Paul wisely concluded, Therefore I will most gladly rejoice and glory in the presence of these limitations!”

We hereby see our limitations as magnets for God’s grace. Why would we then despise them?
