Just me trying to be honest with God.

“Failure can become an advantage simply because God can use it to sift out our weaknesses.”

“He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak.” Is.40

Do these words mean that we must grow weary before God gives us His strength? I think in one sense they do. We must grow tired of trusting our own designs and understanding, even our own motivations and intentions. Humans are a frail and fickle bunch. God’s strength is found in humble admission of these weaknesses and by abandoning them in favor of His understanding, His leading and His inner workings.
