My Grace Is Sufficient For You

Have you made those New Year’s Eve resolutions where you plan to do better with health and nutrition? Work out more, eat better, get to sleep early, etc.? We all have! We make goals and then we fall off the wagon.
I have been so tired since January. All...year...long! I never felt like I would get better. Chronic fatigue, Fibromyalgia, Lyme Disease, Epstein Barr, Low Thyroid Disease. It was a string of illnesses that plagued me all my life.
I tried my best to be strong. I earnestly prayed for total healing. I’ve tried all types of medications, so-called healthy elixirs and whole food diets. Been there and done it all!
Friends on Instagram kept telling me about these products that were helping them with health and well-being. I’m pretty skeptical but after Covid-19 broke-out, I knew it was time to do something to get healthy.
Galatians 6:9 says, “So let’s not get tired of doing what is good. At just the right time we will reap a harvest of blessing if we don’t give up.”
It was time. Time to buckle down, get serious, commit to something. God kept nudging me.
Everyone tells you to be who you were created to be. Resist the urge to live a life that is not the one you have been given by God. He created us in our innermost being; knit together in our mother’s wombs. We are fearfully and wonderfully made. ~ Psalm 139
Except, I felt like I could not break free from never feeling well enough to be faithful to who I was truly created to be! How could I be a blessing to others?
Romans 8:19 says, “For all creation is waiting eagerly for that future day when God will reveal who his children really are.”
There is an appointed time where we come into the fullness of the things God has had for us to be and do for Him. My whole life has been one event after another, bringing me to this point in time. He knew I would one day be speaking words of hope and faith to women who needed to hear them. But up until this point, there have been many moments of hardship.
I asked Him, “But how can I keep up? I have no strength.”
He said to me exactly what He said to Paul, "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
We need to have our wits about us these days. We need strength to keep running our race. I believe when I prayed, God answered me. The supplements were an answer He had for over a year but I never gave it a chance.
Sometimes, God will heal in ways that we just don’t understand.
Sometimes, He heals through medicine.
Sometimes, He heals miraculously.
And then sometimes, He uses a sweet friend you’ve never met that lives on the other side of the country to speak the truth to you.
In the last two months of using these products, I have had less pain and cravings, more energy making me able to exercise on my Elliptical for more than 40 minutes, losing 5 pounds! And now I'm helping others. I'm helping them on their wellness journey.
Listen friend, if you have any issues with gut-health or any illnesses, reach out. You never know how God will perform the miracle you’ve been asking Him for.
Rest assured though because you can stand on this promise:
Philippians 1:6, “Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ.”
Amen!
