We're Messed Up. Embrace it.
Today's message was refreshing. I love that in our weaknesses we are strong! It's encouraging to know that God reveals Himself the most when we're at our lowest points. It reminds me to be real and that I don't have to be perfect all the time or try to portray that. God loves me for me. Also, I REALLLY liked what Emily said. Guys, it's sooo hard to not naturally judge people. So many of these campers this summer, though, probably aren't the coolest people in school or necessarily the most outgoing. They're all going to be on the water for the same reason, though, all to get to know our Lord, which is so cool! We need to be unbiased and love on all of the campers as much as we possibly can. I'll need to shake that "judging a book by its cover" attitude out of me as well! We'll need to hold each other accountable. I'm so excited for Memorial Day weekend, guys ;)

I was super encouraged by that verse too, Joy. The strong language of that passage always just floors me.
ReplyDeleteIt's one thing to put up with my weaknesses, but to delight in them? Really, Jesus? And it's one thing for Him to work in spite of my weakness or to turn them for good or something, but for His power to be made perfect - that's a whole other level!
