The more information we have creates an awareness of our strengths and weaknesses. Understanding who God created us to be, helps us identify what we best need for growth, recognizing where we are prone to get off track so we can develop our plan accordingly.

Please give me the awareness to understand my strengths and weaknesses. Help me create a plan with you to grow and change as you desire. In Jesus’ Name, Amen
