If you are weak it indicates that you aren’t in fellowship with the Holy Spirit who dwells in you. I am not saying your weakness is an indication that the Holy Spirit isn’t working in you. Nay, for the Holy Spirit is working, but the importance lies in your response. Do you work with Him? Do you use this power or not? If the seed of wheat is the power of life, and this power becomes apparent if the seed finds the right conditions for growth. If it finds the right conditions of water, earth, warmth and light, it will sprout, otherwise it’s innate life remains inoperative, not functioning. How many are those who have inoperative power? The power of the Spirit in them doesn’t function because they don’t use it because they’ve grieved the Spirit who is in them.

“But perchance sin overtakes us from our mortal life: what shall be done then? What? Shall there be now despair? Hear: And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous: and He is the propitiator for our sins. He then is the advocate; do your endeavor not to sin: if from the infirmity of this life sin shall overtake you, see to it straightway, straightway be displeased, straightway condemn it; and when you have condemned, you shall come assured unto the Judge. There have you the advocate: fear not to lose your cause in your confession. For if oft-times in this life a man commits his cause to an eloquent tongue, and is not lost; you commit yourself to the Word, and shall you be lost? Cry, We have an advocate with the Father.” St Augustine #JesusChrist #propitiation #atonement #sacrifice #advocate #dailyreadings #coptic #orthodox #ApostlesFast
