Come to Me when you are weak and weary. Rest snugly in my everlasting arms. I do not despise your weakness, My child. Actually, it draws Me closer to you, because weakness stirs up My compassion--My yearning to help. Accept yourself in your weariness, knowing that I understand how difficult your journey has been.
Do not compare yourself with others, who seem to skip along their life-paths with ease. Their journeys have been different from yours, and I have gifted them with abundant energy. I have gifted you with fragility, providing opportunities for your spirit to blossom in My Presence. Accept this gift as a sacred treasure: delicate, yet glowing with brilliant Light. Rather than struggling to disguise or deny your weakness, allow Me to bless you richly through it.
Isaiah 42:3; Isaiah 54:10; Romans 8:26
This is from a torn-out page that a friend handed to me during a season of exhaustion last year...a season of exhaustion and frustration. I happened upon this page tonight as I was organizing my room, and am so thankful I stumbled upon it. I hate feeling weak, tired, and weary. But I know where I can find safety, refuge, and rest.
