The following blog post is from 2015. It had a lot of comments to delete (see previous post) so I copied the post and then deleted it and now I am posting it again. I think I needed to hear this today. Someone called me today and told me about the inappropriate comments on my blog. You never know when and how God will speak to me. Today it was through someone who took the time to read my blogs and the comments Thank you.

But he 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. 2 Corinthians 12: 9-10 NIV
I was reading this scripture this morning and it made me think of a laboring woman, especially the last line. When are we the weakest and when are we the strongest? One of the most vulnerable times in a woman's life is when she is in labor and birthing her child. It is also the time when she is the strongest she will ever be. And what a time for needing the Lord. He is there with us in our weakest moments. Think about how incredibly strong we are with Christ by our side. We make, develop and birth human beings. Blows my mind. And they call women the weaker sex. I would much rather be the weaker sex with Christ by my side, then the strongest without Him.
