You are kind, thoughtful, committed, disciplined and many other great attributes.Yet, you struggle to be humble, courageous, patient, forgiving to mention a few.
It is amazing how you are a sweet sour blend of strengths and weaknesses. Your strengths give light to others. Your weaknesses makes you strive for growth and balance which invites the presence of God. He programmed your strengths. He can also enable your weaknesses to become strong in Grace.
Jesus loves to work and walk with your weaknesses untill you become a new person who is just like Him on earth. Jesus is full of Grace and it's a privilege to have Him dwell in you. He will supply grace for every flaw.
So, do not despair your weaknesses. Don't give up on change. Don't bask in those flaws either. But let go of hiding, pretense or any behaviour modification that is not rooted within. Be honest with Jesus. He is on your side. He's not the friend that will tell your business to others at the slightest opportunity. Rather, He shines His light on your weaknesses, they are swallowed up in His grace and you are made strong.
Jesus is the grace you need. Today, if you hear His voice do not harden your heart.
But he said to me, "my grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." I will all the more gladly boast of my weaknesses, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.
Let us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace in time of need.
