Are you working on your weaknesses?
My friend, you may be reading this today, hoping that I'm going to share something that will bring more of the presence of God into your life at the snap of a finger. Instead, I ask you, how often can God count on YOUR presence? ;-)
I have a very weak voice, which will surprise many because I'm a singer and a speaker. Also, like most women, I use about 20,000 words per day. In comparison, men use only about 7,000 words a day.
God often uses what seems weak to us, so that our hearts stay dependent upon Him! The apostle Paul said, "And He said to me, 'My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness…'" (2 Corinthians 12:9, NKJV).
I've found that if I don't do my vocal exercises regularly and work with a speech therapist, I soon won't be able to live my mission—to give people hope through my performances.
My voice was almost completely gone after a weekend with no less than five performances. I was frustrated, thinking there was no point in continuing the lessons. But then it dawned on me that I had trained with my speech therapist but hadn't done my exercises on my own! No wonder I was hoarse and frustrated! So the big question is, am I doing my exercises even if my speech therapist is not standing right next to me?
Do you continue to pursue God's presence even when you can’t feel Him standing right next to you? For example, it's really valuable to attend church services. But if you don't continue to live what you've heard, making it part of your everyday life, you too will very quickly think, "this isn’t working!"
As the Bible says, "When you walk through the Valley of Weeping...", it could also mean: "Even if you can't feel God right now…" That's when you should press on, intentionally seeking His presence, because the last part of the verse says: "They will continue to grow stronger, and each of them will appear before God in Jerusalem." (Psalm 84:6-7, NLT)
Be encouraged... Through His grace, God will strengthen you in your weakness.
You're a miracle!

Are you going through a season where you have checked off the list: you have prayed, sought the Lord, and read scripture faithfully? Yet, you are still having a hard time finding God or hearing His voice.
