We confess that we seek salvation and rescue through our own strength and not through yours. We also admit that we are tired, weary, and exhausted from trying to be strong. Thank you for the promise from your Word that you give strength to the weary and increase the power of the weak. May we trust the words of Jesus when he tell us that his grace is sufficient for us, for his power is made perfect in weakness. May we boast all the more gladly
