But He said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly in my weaknesses, so that the power of Messiah may dwell in me. 2 Corinthians 12:9, TLV
Weakness is frowned upon in this world. Predators look for weakness. Opportunists capitalize on the weak. However, for those followers of the Messiah Jesus, that’s where we get His power.
How does that look? Do we radiate power? Or exhibit superhero strength? Actually, we may not look that different to the world, except for one amazing thing:
Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and ‘you will find rest for your souls.’
YESHUA, MATTHEW 11:29, TLV [EMPHASIS MINE]
Rest. Peace. A heart that rests in GOD, is not weak. When we traverse trials and tribulations, we don’t have to look like we have peace, we have it.
Whatever shows in us to this hurting world will be real. We acknowledge the pain, grief, depression, but we know all this is temporary, and He will carry us through.
