How comforting it is to know that my limitations, don’t limit God. 

As a wife, mother, sister, and friend, I’d like to show up and be present in everyone’s life, but I can’t.

Stretching myself beyond my limits, brings barriers between my joy and my peace.

At 51, I realize, I am not a stranger to myself… I know when I’ve reached my end.

• I know when my body craves rest.
• I know when my mind is mentally worn out.
• I know when my sanity “deliberately” presses     pause.

However, when I can’t proceed any further, I’m grateful that God has the capacity to continue.

Ephesians 3:14-16 declares that God’s  resources are unlimited: “When I think of all this, I fall to my knees and pray to the Father, the Creator of everything in Heaven and on earth. I pray that from His glorious, unlimited resources He will empower you with inner strength through His Spirit.

Friends, God shows up where we can’t. He goes where we’ve stopped. He leads us when we’ve  lost our way. He loves us without looking, and He provides for us when our resources have run out.

God’s resources are unlimited. His strength is perfectly suited– for our (repetitive) moments of weakness. 

Dear Sister, where have you bumped into your door of “I can’t go any further?” Where do you need God to continue? Do you need Him to reset your peace, or reignite your joy?

Whatever your needs are, God longs to lavish you with your desires, you just have to invite Him into the cramped space of your struggles, and allow Him to enlarge His control.

Today, if you’ve reached the point of your end, I pray that you open your heart to God’s unlimited resources, and rest in the capacity of His strength.

Grow well
