Paul was a man that knew the ways of God, who walked with God and lived a life of excitment, travel, adventure but he remained humble and never boasted.
Paul also allowed God to refine him in his weakness. May of times in my life I have gotten angry at God when in troubled waters but Paul had it right; he allowed God to become his strength in his storms.
2 Corinthians
9 ``...my grace is sufficiant for you, for my power is made perfect in your weakness...``
When we are weak and we choose to still worship God then we have truely brought glory to God. Also in our weakness we learn so much about ourselves and can hear from God more clearly.
We get lost every easily when we allow ourselves to be lead by our emotions. I am not saying that emotions are bad, actually God created them, but we need to raise them up to the truth. Every morning we would all have to get up early to do devotions and worship, there were plenty of mornings that my heart was just not into it but as I pushed through and worshiped God because He is God, there was breakthrough.
In one of these moments this is what God told me...
When you feel the most helpless, alone, and at the end of your rop, cry out to me! There is no hole deep enough that can keep me from you. I will carry you on wings like eagles, I will be your shelter from the storm, I will be your strength amist the battle, for when you are weak my strength will come to you like the winds.
