What are some of your weaknesses?

[MatthewG]

Hello you,

All of us have weakness: and none of us are perfect. Sorry to say perfect doesn’t exist no matter how hard you try to hide it, or conceal protruding that you are flawless probably hurts more than anything else.

My weakness pertain to being open to communication however when communication is only given back in small words sometimes that really messes with my mind. I realize now that Facebook is of no real use to me personally. (which will continue to use to post videos about the Word of God (cause you truly never know who may need to hear it: especially my mom).

Maybe need to get out the world more and present myself in front of others.

My weakness also sometimes pertains to being lazy and unmotivated especially in the winter time months because how cold it is outside.

My weakness also pertains to sharing Christ with others but when it is done is really a great joy to be able to share with another person. Even in rejection when you share the truth on your heart of what you believe and maybe someone doesn’t share or add insight or you’re completely rejected it can hurt but if you are doing it by the Will of God there is joy in that suffering knowing your own heart.

I have no need to harp on any of my sins; we all fall short of the glory of God.

What I do know is that in our weaknesses Christ is our strength that we can reside and trust in, while we live in this life together. That God does truly love us and has forgiven us of all our sins in this life. Now today, and that Jesus has risen from the dead.

Weaknesses we all have them. Figured would share mine with you, so you can understand your not alone in whatever it is you might be going through.

Life is difficult, the word of God is there for us to read for support and the encouragement from understanding others weaknesses to May it give you confidence and encouragement as you live in this life.

Take care,
Matthew G.

James 5:16
"16 Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much."

Thanks for sharing that Matthew,
You know one of the things missing from an online Christian community is accountability. It helps to keep us focused and in prayer with each other, on a regular basis. We DO need one another in many ways but, all this virtual stuff only goes so far (IMO). Yes, we can and do grow close to many on here over the years and hurt when they hurt, rejoice in our hearts for their victory's. But we cannot be there to help one another in any tangible way!

Sorry Matt, off track...


Frustration and then anger leading to hissy fits, Horrid! Unmotivated at this time. Not as faithful as I should be in prayer and study. But then we KNOW that "He who began a good work in you is faithful..."

Good thread brother.

P.S.
Really grateful for the song:

In my Sunday school class, a couple of the single ladies were talking about their weaknesses, and they each confessed to some sins of a sexual nature. Then they asked me about my weaknesses, and I had to confess, Well, I have a weakness for gossiping…”

 

[Mantis]

Grizzly bears are my weakness

 

[TEXBOW]

I have a little battle each day with my flesh. My weakness is that I do not have the courage to pluck my eyes out.

Ha! You are not alone brother. It's a spiritual discipline I suppose. I'm surprised we are told to remove hands and eyes but not the tongue!

 

[Rita]

Distraction is a weakness with me, especially when I get tired. Lack of motivation is another and I have low self esteem and live with anxiety about what people think ……….I do join in with gossip at work until I check myself and stop. Often it is a battle between spiritual food and physical food !!!!!!
I do know that many weaknesses have been dealt with over the years ……so I know I am work in progress !,

[Wynona]

I'm too awesome!

I am not very observant. I could never be a detective. Im not one for small details.

Sometimes I start things and don't see them through. I can be a bit vain. I have a closet full of thrifted dresses but you know, I could use more.

Consistency has been an issue in the past. So has being too nice when I ought to be more honest and straightforward. I used to be a perfectionist but I don't know what happened to that.

I grew up in the south but would like an air fryer.

The list goes on. I tend to focus on my flaws a lot since I always want to improve.

Your sense of humor makes up for any of your flaws.

Just for clarification I’m genuinely asking questions. They may sound funny, but just questions.

Hello Nancy, thank you for sharing.

How do you handle when you are getting frustrated or upset?

I have been dealing with frustration and anger lately too. Just not overly satisfied with life at the current moment but believe that things will get better soon. Talking about this issue openly helps levitate some of the tension off my soul. Been working with my mother at her dog grooming shop and just over all not content; have let myself go having not worked what is to me consider real work in almost two months now. It’s starting to really bother me.

In my Sunday school class, a couple of the single ladies were talking about their weaknesses, and they each confessed to some sins of a sexual nature. Then they asked me about my weaknesses, and I had to confess, Well, I have a weakness for gossiping…”

What did you go do tell the nuns on them?
I use to have dealt trouble with pornography haven’t looked in awhile now it seems like, and I’m really shy with women anyway, though have had encounters in life with them, Lambano?

How do you handle your gossiping?

Grizzly bears are my weakness

What do you do when you see one? Are you able to feed it sugar cubes like a horse, Mantis?

I have a little battle each day with my flesh. My weakness is that I do not have the courage to pluck my eyes out.

Believe me sometimes I’ll see a video on the TikTok of some cute woman and like…. But just got swipe on the page. Sometimes see them in real life too, like dang. But try not to go further in that indulge of seeing them as an object, how do you handle it, Texbow?

my whole day has been a distraction. So you and I can relate on that note. How do you deal with it?

Where do you think that lack of motivation comes from?

What makes you worry about what others think about you? I know one thing I reassured my friend was to be himself and you’re free to live your life how you want to even after expressing Christ to him. I’m not sure if he believes or not yet. I try to share with him how important it is to have faith.

There are times I’m very lonely is anything with little no motivation from others but that is where God needs to be where my place of confiding even if May try to reach out to others for help… sometimes you won’t get much or you will it all depends on the individual.

I believe everyone here is important; even if we have different personalities and how we may talk or see the world.

What is low-self esteem?

Gossip? What is that truly?

I have mentioned encounters with other people but don’t consider that as gossiping. I imagine Gossip is when you go behind someone’s back and point out their flaws or the things they have said or did?

It is a battle between the Flesh and Spirit, Rita.

Wynona,

Im not as happy as you are there with you feeling awesome. You are important that is for sure and you do matter. I can’t always be happy but joyful can be expressed in the spirit surely when that joy is there.

I try to not focus on my flaws and just put them in perspective of the fact they exist. Am saying I am a weak person is a serious thing for me to admit, always in need of encouragement from time to time, and to feel needed and wanted by others around me. That is not something i am constantly surrounded by.

Thank you for sharing though and it is good to work on those things you like to work on yourself with.

When you say you are a weak person, how do you mean?

….I do join in with gossip at work until I check myself and stop.

Just think, if you ever get to retire your new weakness will be joining in with the gossip at the Bingo hall.

 

[Truman]

A weakness of mine is I tend to get off-topic on threads. I'm sure there's a few who would agree with me. Lol

Bingo is not a weakness of mine. My first wife, however...

wouldn’t you be there calling the numbers out too? Lol.

Oh no I use to go to the bingo with my mum and aunty and the ‘ older ladies ‘ kind of gossip is just so funny !!!
Sadly I haven’t stepped foot in a bingo hall since my mum passed away 9years ago, it was her special treat every week and by association i just can’t face going.

 

[MatthewG]

Hate that. That sounds like a good memory of you and her together though, Rita.
