I have many weaknesses. I could relate by saying that chocolate is my weakness, this is true! However, my biggest weakness is that I have a hair trigger temper and I get very short with people, mostly my family. I get extremely focused on what I am doing and don’t want to be disturbed. This is not a good way to be. I have 5 kids all at different levels and stages of life with different issues and I have a hard time dealing with their issues when I just want to escape from my own issues. When I do get angry at them for making my life difficult, I may not call them stupid or dumb, however, I might make them feel that way. Because I am reading the scriptures every day and am committed to having a solid relationship with Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ this has made me see this weakness in all it’s glory. I can’t say this a pleasant thing!! So I ask those tough questions, what do I need to do to be better here? Most of the time, the answer is to take a deep breath and don’t say a word. ANYBODY that knows me, knows that is one of the most difficult things for me to do. I can’t stay quiet even with laryngitis!! I suppose this will come in stages rather than all at once. I did better the other day, but I could have zipped it sooner!! I take comfort in the fact that the Apostle Paul asked for a thorn to be removed and was told this: “My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness.” His response to that answer was: “Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.” So even if we have weakness let us be happy that we are provided with strength.
