Devotionals - Five minutes at the pump

Fuel-stop devotionals.

Written to be read in the time it takes to fill two tanks. A new one every day, drawn from a year's worth of readings — scripture, a thought to chew on, and a prayer.

He Chose the Weak1 Corinthians 1:27
No. 336
But God chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise; God chose the weak things of the world to shame the strong.1 Corinthians 1:27

God has a bias toward the unlikely. Not because weakness is impressive, but because it leaves no room for human pride. When God works through someone with nothing to offer, no one can steal the glory. He uses the weak things on purpose.

Reflect

What weakness in your life might actually be the thing God wants to use to display His strength?

Prayer

Lord, use my weakness. I stop hiding it. Display Your power through the places where I have nothing to offer. Amen.
