“God does not want our ability but our availability.” Paul’s heart for the church in Corinth is a small reflection of God’s jealous heart for His people. God refuses to share the human heart with any competitor because He knows that our eternal life depends on loyalty to Him. God is jealous for our attention, our energy, and our lives. When we make ourselves available to Him, even in our weakness, God’s strength can be revealed. Our limitations become opportunities to experience His power and a reminder that we can trust Him to do what only He can do.

Yet, we are challenged to live intentionally, to walk in a way that is pleasing to God and to be used by Him.
