Gracious Heavenly Father, I Praise You for who You are! You are Almighty. You are Merciful! You are full of Compassion. Forgive me for putting the focus on myself, for my self-reliance. I thank you for being patient with me. For your grace extended to me as I seek you, and your allowing me, in my brokenness, to find my strength in You alone! I praise you that YOUR POWER is made perfect in my weakness. I will boast all the more gladly about my weakness, so that your power may rest upon me. For when I am weak , then I am strong. Thank you, Jesus! Amen
