As many of you know, I had the incredible opportunity of sharing my story at a fundraising gala for Pink Pearl in Toronto on Friday night.
When I watched this video last night I was in shock. I don’t feel like the woman sharing her story is me because in that moment I felt entirely weak, emotionally exhausted and completely at the end of myself. A few hours before this speech I had sent a desperate text to my prayer group girls, begging them to pray big time because my speech wasn’t finished, I was feeling physically sick, my voice had been cracking all day, I was emotionally exhausted from the week and I also wanted to have an incredible night with all the family & friends coming to support us. I was banking on experiencing the truth in this verse, “When I am weak, He is strong.”
This video is evidence of these verses in action, of my God in action, because I sure didn’t have the strength on my own…
“But He said to me, ‘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. That is why, for Christ’s sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong.” – 2 Corinthians 12:9-10
