The majority of us seem to have no real issue accepting acknowledgment and praise for our strengths. However, a majority of us also seem to not be so readily accepting of the criticism and corrections of our weaknesses. It is however, the awareness and acceptance of our weaknesses that adds to our strength, if we allow it.

I have a very close friend who once said - “the reason Christians are having an identity crisis, is because they were never meant to have one (an identity outside of Christ, that is).” This episode is about that the fact that the help of His countenance (Ps.42:5) is the health of my countenance (Ps.42:11). Might is be that we are not healthy Christians, because we are not accepting the help of Christ?
