Let's see what the Word says:

2 Corinthians 8: 9 For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that ye through his poverty might be rich.

2 Corinthians 9: 8 And God is able to make all grace abound toward you; that ye, always having all sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good work:

3 John 2 Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.

Thank you so much for those Beautiful Words. We are His beloved. He loves us as a Father.

Maybe if I was a stronger person I would think I could do this myself without Him (of course then I would be a fool). But since I am weak with MG & Stills, He can use that weakness, again in 2 Cor 12:7-9:

7 To keep me from becoming conceited because of these surpassingly great revelations, there was given me a thorn in my flesh, a messenger of Satan, to torment me.

8 Three times I pleaded with the Lord to take it away from me.

9 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.

My wish is the ability to serve. If it be the Lord's Will, He will use me in this. A'men
