WHAT TO DO AT THE END OF YOUR ROPE?
“God brings us to the place of total dependence upon Himself to demonstrate that He is totally dependable… The more completely I depend on God, the more He surprises me by the results that follow — results that I could never have achieved as long as I depended on my own efforts.”
2Co 12:9 And He said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness." Therefore most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.
What to do when you come to the end of your rope? The best recommendation I can give you is, let it go and let God be God! As long as we struggle and strive to control our lives, we keep the Lord from doing what He does best: be our strength and victory in every situation. God will allow His children to go through impossible things in order that He may carry us through them and remind us He is with us! When we stop trying to be in control and give Him control, we experience His mighty power. We see His great abilities through our impossibilities. When we trust Him, He makes a way when there is no way possible. He is the God who will never fail His trusting child.
I just want to encourage you to exchange your weakness for His strength! Look to Jesus as your way maker! He is the Way, that’s the Truth, embrace Him as your Life! It’s OK. Let it go. He will catch you, because underneath are His everlasting arms! (Deut. 33:27)
Every blessing!
