“But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore, I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses so that Christ’s power may rest on me.” 2 Corinthians 12:9

In our journey toward the finish line, we often find ourselves faced with challenges and obstacles that seem insurmountable. We struggle with our own weaknesses and inadequacies, unsure of how we will ever cross the finish line. Yet, in these moments of weakness, something remarkable happens. God’s strength shines through, illuminating the path before us and infusing us with the power to persevere.

Throughout the pages of Scripture, we encounter countless individuals who experienced God’s strength in the midst of their weaknesses. From Moses, who stuttered and doubted his ability to lead, to David, who faced giants and armies, and even Paul, who carried a thorn in his flesh, God’s power was made perfect in their weakness.

1 Corinthians 2:5 says, “So that your faith would not rest on men’s wisdom but on God’s power.”

It is in our moments of weakness that we often discover the true source of our strength. We realize that we cannot rely solely on our own abilities and talents but must instead surrender to God’s strength working within us. It is through our weaknesses that we learn to lean on Him, to trust in His unfailing grace and power.

When we embrace our weaknesses and allow God to work through them, we begin to experience His power in unexpected ways. We start to understand that our weaknesses do not define us but instead provide a backdrop for God’s strength to be displayed. It is through our weaknesses that His power is magnified, as He takes the broken pieces of our lives and transforms them into something beautiful. Amen. Philippians 4:13 says, “I can do all things through him who strengthens me.” Amen.
