No Strength


As tour was drawing to a close, I felt like I had nothing left. I felt like I needed the Easter break that we’re just now at the beginning of. But there were a few concerts left, and I was speaking for one of them. Each day sapped more energy from me, and I began to wonder, “What do I have left to offer this tour?” I had nothing left, and I had to pour out just one more time.

As I was praying and thinking about what to speak about, I arrived at a topic.

2 Corinthians 12:9-12
But [God] said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me. That is why, for Christ’s sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong.

I spoke about relying on God, when that’s the only means by which I was speaking to them.

When I have no strength left, I will rely on my God.

Now comes break. Time to rest and prepare for the final fulltime tour, so that we all might finish the year strong. After all, what should we offer God but our best?
