aaand i have no life...but i'm breathing!!!!
i started talking to this guy, on facebook, no i actually met him briefly a couple of weekends ago and we didn't repulse one another. haha he was really nice.
we're just getting to know each other a little, sending short none descript messages about what our favorite movies are and what we do all day. yeah, we're both big nerds which is great!
his next question for me: what is your favorite book and/or Bible passage?
well that's easy, 2 Corinthians 12:7-10
but when I tried to remember why, i mean exactly why...i couldn't.
The reason is there, but it's been so long since I've poured over that passage I had forgotten HOW MUCH it meant to me.
2Corinth12:7-10
"To keep me from becoming conceited because of these surpassingly great revelations, there was given me a thorn in my flesh, a messenger of Satan, to torment me. Three times I pleaded with the Lord to take it away from 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. That is why, for Christ's sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong."
I don't think I read it out of context or anything, but these days I'm not sure anymore. It's my favorite because I am weak, and when I am weak then I am strong.
Once I prayed for a "thorn" and I knew it would be painful and I might not make it through, but what that thorn made me do was look for strength and comfort again. And that strength and comfort is Jesus.
We love him because he first loved us.
I love you for never giving up on me, even when I give up on me.
