Isaiah 40:28-29 Have you never heard? Have you never understood? The LORD is the everlasting God, the Creator of all the earth. He never grows weak or weary. No one can measure the depths of his understanding. He gives power to the weak and strength to the powerless.

God cares for the outcast, the weak, and the helpless. He loves to do His greatest work through the most unlikely people. God could work through the most powerful and wealthy people. But one of the ways God shows His true power is when He strengthens the weak and gives power to the powerless. When God sent His Son to earth, Jesus came in the form of a helpless baby. God doesn’t often choose the powerful; He empowers those He chooses. This is great news for us! We may not be the best at what we do or the most influential person, but God can still use you. You may not feel like you have the right traits or talents to be used by God and that’s okay. God can use anyone and everyone. God makes it a habit of taking our greatest weakness and greatest pains to use for His glory.

Take a moment right now to ask God for strength. If you’re feeling weak, ask Him to increase your power. Ask Him to open your heart and mind to how He can use your weaknesses to make a difference in the world around you. Have a wonderful week.
