My Limitations Are Boundless, His Bounds are Limitless

One thing I have learned in life and that is my limitations are boundless. There are no end to my limits, even the things I do the best are only mediocre in comparison to the gifts of others. In other words, I have nothing whatsoever to brag about, save Jesus Christ. The only pearl in my heart that shines brightest and will always shine the brightest is the beautiful reflection  of the Savior. I have no other hope for perfection except through the cross. My death produces something truly to brag about and that is the Love of our Father towards us. While I was yet in my sins, He saved me. One who had and has absolutely nothing of note to add to the table of our Lord, except a bag full of filthy works. He has had to make them whole and fresh and new, according to His Spirit and His will, not my own. I used to have a few things I thought I was good enough to "let" the Lord use,  but now I know, I have nothing He needs, yet, He has everything I need. I want to be empty of my own pride and full of His humility. It takes time, but if we stay the course, we will, as Christians all come to the same conclusion: I am nothing, Jesus is everything. I thank Him for teaching me to be humble. I want nothing more than to be nothing anymore, then I may reflect Him in His glory! My soul, wait thou only upon the Lord! In 2 Corinthians 12:5-6, Paul says,   
⁵ Of such a one I will boast; yet of myself I will not boast, except in my infirmities. ⁶ For though I might desire to boast, I will not be a fool; for I will speak the truth. But I refrain, lest anyone should think of me above what he sees me to be or hears from me.

We read further in verse 9-10:

⁹ And He said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. ¹⁰ Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in needs, in persecutions, in distresses, for Christ’s sake. For when I am weak, then I am strong. 
To the world this is a mystery, even to many followers of Christ. We must grow and know that He is our complete fulfillment, nothing else is ever needed.
I have come to realize that when I sing praises without my whole heart in it, He is not pleased. Whenever I pray for the benefits of others to hear, I am nothing but an orator, it counts for nothing. God hates lukewarm Christianity, as well as apathy. Worse yet, a heart filled with pride that pretends it is concerned with the things of His. Hypocrisy and hot air is anything apart from true heart-felt true worship of Him in everything we do.
