When God Says No

When God Says No

 I’m sure you have them in your life too. The struggles that you wish you didn’t have to face or battle.  The times you’ve prayed and God hasn’t removed the obstacle.  


“Three times I pleaded with the Lord to take it away. But He said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness…For when I am weak, then I am strong.” 2 Corinthians 12:9-10 


You are not the only one who pleads with God. Or who is aware of your weakness. Who is facing something seemingly too big. What if God can use the struggle to show His power?  When God says ‘no’ to one thing, He is also saying ‘yes’ to another. He may say no to removing the challenge. But He will always say yes to enough grace to see you through the trial. 


When our weakness is revealed, so is His power. When we have to rely on His strength and grace, we are right where He desires for us to be. God is offering enough grace for you today.  – Sandi
