Daily Devotional
Have you ever felt like you’re just not strong enough to handle everything life throws at you? It’s a common struggle, but in 2 Corinthians 12:10, the apostle Paul shares a powerful message about finding strength in weakness.
He says, “For when I am weak, then I am strong.” This might sound paradoxical, but it’s a beautiful reminder that our own strength has its limits, but with God, our weaknesses can become a source of His power.
Think about a time when you felt completely overwhelmed or inadequate. Maybe it was a challenging situation at work, a difficult relationship, or a personal struggle.
In those moments, it’s easy to feel like you’re not enough. But here’s the amazing truth: when we acknowledge our weaknesses and turn to God for strength, His power can work through us in incredible ways.
Instead of trying to rely solely on your own abilities, consider turning to God and asking for His strength to carry you through.
It’s okay to admit that you can’t do it all on your own. In fact, that’s where true strength is found – in surrendering your weaknesses to God and allowing His power to work in and through you.
So, the next time you feel like you’re not strong enough, remember that in your weakness, God’s strength is made perfect.
Take comfort in knowing that you don’t have to face life’s challenges alone. Lean on God, and you’ll discover a newfound strength that surpasses anything you could muster on your own.
