Proverbs 12:4-6 ~ The Importance of Correct Counsel

Excerpt:

There are two things that happen in every circumstance and trial in a believer’s life.  First, I get to experience Jesus Christ Himself sustaining me.  And second, my life gets to be a display of the Lord’s glory and His faithfulness.

In the midst of my weakness and I cry out, “Oh, Lord, help me!” he sustains me through it, and other people see Him.

Of course, they see me in my human weakness too, but I have come to a point that I want people to see my human weakness in the midst of His strength because that is reality.  People look at me and say, "I am weak, and I am hurting, and I need Christ."

And I am able to say, "Me too, and I have Christ, and He sustains me."  That is the good news.
