For this thing I besought the Lord thrice, that it might depart from me. And He said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength in made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ rest upon me. Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong. - Paul
 

This morning, Sis Joanne led a discussion and pointed out that sometimes our biggest weakness can become our greatest strength through the power of Christ.

Many times, we don't think of God giving us infirmity, but Paul said in 2 Cor 12:7-10, there was given me a thorn in the flesh...

God has promised us STRENGTH in WEAKNESS! We need never fear nor fail! Christ strength will empower us to overcome even in our darkest hour of need! FOR God never fails.

Jesus Christ is our strength in trials severe and we are perfected into his image. Where there is weakness, distress and calamity, there is power to overcome.

Christ's strength is imparted unto those who feel their weakness and need of Divine aid. It is in our weakness that Jesus, Christ our Redeemer manifests his power to uphold, lift us up, and administer grace in the time of need!

We joy in our tribulations knowing Christ is with us and pain actually becomes pleasure!
