The most broken, wretched, and honest confession I utter is the most right, wonderful, and glorious statement to His ears. For then I understand my natural state in this world. Then I understand what the Fall has done. Then I understand what He has done for me. Then I understand what He wants for me. What better way for Him to glorify Himself in all his goodness, tenderness, and mercy than to love, correct, and comfort a wretched creature such as myself. What better way to proclaim His glory and honor than to make a nothing into something. To make filth pure. To justify the ungodly. I am purified filth and am capable of being a power filled creature in a powerless world. Truth is power. Jesus is power because He is the Truth. If I will abide in Christ, then He can work through me. Then I can become His tool of mercy and love. When I am capable of more than myself, then He is glorified because He makes me capable. He does not concern over my limits, He knows better. My limits are there because of fear, self-doubt, lack of trust, laziness, etc…God cares not for these things, He is set to do His work and we are to be the instruments for that work.
