About the video
Some of us spend too much time focusing on our limits, while others avoid them because of how it makes them feel. We have to have a clear understanding of our limitations so we can know where we can look to God for help.
Cursed is the one who trusts in human strength and the abilities of mere mortals. His very heart strays from the Eternal. He is like a little shrub in the desert that never grows; he will see no good thing come his way. He will live in a desert wasteland, a barren land of salt where no one lives.
Jeremiah 17:5-6 Voice
Relying on God is the process of telling ourselves that we don’t have all the answers and committing ourselves to prayer instead of trying to figure things out on our own. It requires trusting that God not only cares but is real and able to make a tangible difference in our lives.
But blessed is the one who trusts in Me alone; the Eternal will be his confidence. He is like a tree planted by water, sending out its roots beside the stream. It does not fear the heat or even drought. Its leaves stay green and its fruit is dependable, no matter what it faces.
Jeremiah 17:7-8 Voice

Jeremiah 17:7-8 Voice
