13Where can I get meat for all these people? For they keep crying out to me, ‘Give us meat to eat!’
14I cannot carry all these people by myself; it is too burdensome for me. 15If this is how You are going to treat me, please kill me right now—if I have found favor in Your eyes—and let me not see my own wretchedness.”
God needed Moses to see his inability to fix this problem because of his own wretchedness, his weakness. But Gods power is perfected in weakness!
2 Corinthians 12:9 But He said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for My power is perfected in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly in my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest on me.
I had something similar happen to me, the Lord called us to adoption but when the party was over and life got out of hand I told the Lord that it is too burdensome for me, please kill me right now. “But Gods power is perfected in weakness!”
He needed me to see my own wretchedness, my weakness, “so that the power of Christ may rest on me.”
I was no different than Moses, we were both weak without the Lord!
Have you ever been so weak that the Lord’s power carried (rested on) you?
If so, boast all the more gladly to others about your testimony because it’s our obligation to the One who died for us! It’s your testimony that He will use to draw lost souls to Him.
Blessings
