Not By Might, Nor By Power

I have been going through an intense battle spiritually. I don't know if it's because of the conference we have coming up in September or if it's because I have decided to pursue God with everything I have or maybe it's both.
I was talking to God on Sunday morning and I told Him that I was tired and I needed His strength and power to flow in my life. It was one of those Sundays where I didn't feel like worshipping but I did regardless because I needed God to speak to me and I was pursuing God like crazy. During the worship service I didn't feel anything; during the preaching I didn't feel anything it wasn't until after everyone was dismissed and I was standing there talking to God and a word from the Lord came to me "It's not by might nor by power but by my spirit." At that moment my spirit man jumped and I was broken before God in His presence. I stood there, in amazement that God would love me in spite of me.
I guess that's what grace is all about. Check back soon; I am starting a couple of different studies that I am going to share with everyone that will read them.
