:: This Week's Promise to Share
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.
That is why, for Christ's sake,
I delight in weaknesses, in insults
in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties.
For when I am weak,
then I am strong.
2 Corinthians
