Iโve heard the saying that โGod gives his toughest battles to his toughest soldiers.โ But when I see the disciples that Jesus chose and suffered for His name sake, I donโt see Him choosing the โtoughest soldiersโ, as I learn about men and women in the past and even today who have laid down their lives for Jesus, once again I donโt see God choosing His โtoughest soldiers.โ But I see a strong and mighty God choosing weak men and woman, and empowering them by His Holy Spirit to face some of the toughest battles and be used for His glory.
I once thought I was a โtough soldierโ until I met Jesus, I then realized that Iโm so weak without Him, and apart from Jesus I canโt do anything. I need Jesus daily. The only way that I can truly become who God wants me to be and truly do what God wants me to do, is not by my power not by my might, but only by The Spirit of The Living God. Thank you Jesus.
