Beautiful grace

2 Corinthians 12:9

"My grace is sufficient for you,

for my power is made prefect 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.

Paul, when he wrote this scripture, was being tormented by a

messenger of Satan. Three times he pleaded God to take the sufferings

away from Him, But He didn't.

Instead all He said was," Hey, my grace is sufficient for you"

You know many times, we think we have to be in prefect condition

to serve Christ: perfect health, perfect family, perfect character...

The fact is, we don't. 

In fact when we have weaknesses, pain and difficulties,

and we still pull through, our testimony of Christ would be even more powerful

because then it is not us, for we are weak

but Christ, for His power rests in us. 

Beautiful grace
