I know in my last post I said something about embracing my limitations. Well, maybe embrace was too strong a word because at some point in the week I'm pretty sure I broke down and cried a little.
On the plus side, my condition comes with memory loss so I can't remember it very well.
I think instead of embracing my limitations, I'll just give them a pat on the shoulder for now. You know, like we do with those awkward people we don't really want to hug.
Also, I want to share something that happened this week. In my sorrow, Jesus comforted me. Days after my little meltdown I was lamenting about my inability to serve him like I used to. During my prayer talk, I was filled with a warm love. It didn't come from within me, but was aimed at me!
His acceptance and kindness rushed over me like a waterfall.
I felt in my soul, that he loved me simply because he created me.
It's true for you as well!
He doesn't care that we're not well enough or strong enough to do things for him. He doesn't need us to do anything for him. If anyone knows about our suffering and affliction, it's Jesus. He is our healer and savior and gives of himself freely and generously.
My prayer for all of us this week is that we simply accept his gifts and enjoy his presence.
May you be filled with his peace ~ Erika
Thanks Erika. I guess He just wants us to quiet ourselves so He can hold us.
