Can a seeming strength turn out to be actually later on a weakness for us?

This article will discuss how sometimes our strengths can become our weaknesses.

Strength itself is never weakness unless it is being used from weakness. This happens when you are mislead into thinking that one of your weaknesses is actually one of your strengths.

This can happen for example when an allowance or permission for healing the ill health of a person is taken for granted, and you then use your strength of healing powers or gift to heal someone without their permission. Praying for someone who hasn't asked us to help them in this way leads to us misusing our own power. This strength, when abused and misused, then often becomes our greatest weakness. As we become egotistical in using it, we might feel that we of ourselves have great healing powers, and strengths of character.

This might seem only a fine line of difference, but one that must be seen to see the truth that is always behind the love living in you as love, and not as a falseness of wanting something from the insecurity of any created isolated fears residing still in your ego.

Love shows you your strengths within your weaknesses to allow you to strengthen your weaknesses to then become your strengths. Love utilises all of you and the weakest part of you will often become the newest strongest part of you now to do the unique work that you are now doing for God.
