In my weakness, you are my strength. This maybe contrary to what we want to believe in for ourselves, that is, that we are weak. But Paul glorified himself in His weakness, because he knew that he could then humble himself and call out to God to be His strength.
And God showed up. God was His Strength and Rescuer. God's grace was sufficient for Him while he had that "thorn in His flesh" and helped Him through difficulties.
For King David, God was His refuge and fortress, and helped Him in times of trouble.
So I am not sure what you are going through today, but just know, He is your Strength in your weakness. And that's awesome, because we don't have to pretend to have it all together. We can trust God to be the almighty "I AM" in our lives.
Amen
Enjoy this daily devotion.
Inspired by Joyce Meyer in her book Daily Devotions: Book of Psalms.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
