Please explain 2Cor 12: 9-10.

[rita727]

Spoiler: 2Cor. 12:9-10

“God 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.”

"For when I am weak, then I am strong."

Everyone has unique problem, anger, food, finances, etcs., how are we then made stronger by it?

 

[HypnoToad]

It's not the weakness itself that makes us stronger, it is only indirectly.

Recognizing a weakness allows us to rely on God for help. It is God's help that gives us victory over our weaknesses, and that victory through God is what makes us and our faith stronger.
