There are times when we are weak, perhaps physically or mentally or both.
We have a need for consolation and somehow need to come away from whatever negative feelings or worries that might assail us.
Being weak can be a blessing in disguise because we become aware of our need for help, our need for God. Simply by realizing this will allow God to lavish His compassionate love on us.
The challenge is to learn to avoid any negative thoughts that might come. We can relax in our weak state, full of confidence that God, like a Loving Father, is looking after us / prompting us / guiding us and comforting us.
The more we are able to be like a child, believing that our Loving Father is with us and will never forsake us, we will regain our peace of mind. God does not leave us. Often, it is we who move away from God.
Learn to relax in whatever state of weakness we find ourselves and give time for God to step into our lives and become our Mentor.
St. Paul was known to say, ' In my weakness, I find my strength!'
