He will give us the strength to do what we cannot do on our own

Love God and He will enable you to love others even when they disappoint you.

~~Francine Rivers

This morning’s prayer and meditation for Sally’s healing comes from Take Heart, Oh God: Riches from the Greatest Christian Women Writers of All Time.

We’ve all been let down by someone. Whether a date stood us up or a friend betrayed our confidence, it hurt. The disappointment we endure can run the gamut from a minor inconvenience to a life-altering event.

But we have to keep one thing in mind—people are human. We are all imperfect and capable of letting someone down, be it our family, our friends, or even God. Thankfully, because God is perfect, he can enable us to love others and forgive them when they disappoint us. How can he do such a thing? Because he loves and forgives us, no matter how many times we let him down.

God’s love and forgiveness are a brilliant reminder of how we can love others, even when they disappoint us.

He is our example. He will give us the strength to do what we cannot do on our own.

Prayer for Meditation

Lord, teach me to love people as you have loved me, even when I disappoint you.
