And He said to me, “My grace is sufficient for You,”…

But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me.    (2 Corinthians 12:9)

some mornings i feel like i’ve woke up in a thorn bush.  Don’t get me wrong, i have the greatest wife and life for that matter in the world.  But my all means do I have thorns.  I’m hangin on to 29… barely and I go to sleep and my back hurts.  I wake up at 2 am and I have to pee.  For no reason what so ever I wake up at 6am even when I could sleep till 8 or later.  Then once I’m up, I mean in motion of gettin ready all of a sudden I want to go back to bed.  It’s a gift really the gift i like to call laziness.  By the time I take off to work, i step outside and am reminded that I drive a piece of CRAP jeep that most of the time I question if it’ll even start and if it does then i question if it’s going to blow up.  I have no radio in my junky jeep because it was stolen a couple of months ago…. and then i can go on and on and on and on… and that’s just the beginning of my morning. 

but honestly when I think about it…  I’m reminded.

HIS GRACE IS SUFFICIENT FOR ME.  I’m not going to lie, i’m blessed to have my crappy jeep, without the radio i have great conversation with God.  I mean the greatest i’ve had in a long time.  It also gives me a chance to sit in quiet which honestly is so rare today.  Not only that, but I have a great home, with an amazing wife who is most beautiful in the mornings when i roll over and see her there.  Imagine angelic and super model all rolled together.  And about the peeing at 2am thing… I’m just glad i can pee. 

and honestly if everything was gone tomorrow… The grace of Christ Jesus in my life is sufficient.  To live is Christ and die is gain.  What’s left to say really, but thanks for the thorns, thanks so much for my weaknesses, thanks so much for the fact that I have something to complain about and really nothing to complain about at all.  I’m blessed.  welcome to my new adventure of blogging.
