We must not only be willing to have God point out our weaknesses, but we must be willing to admit that we even have them, and then to ask God for help in changing them. Admitting our weaknesses is the first step, by showing God that we also recognize them in our life. Next, we must be willing to change them, and must be open to better ways to do so. Asking God for help is the start, but we must also be willing to ask others close to us for their insights and thoughts, too. God wants us to rely on Him in this process, and not be so self-sufficient that we won’t be willing to have Him and others help us.
