Day 3: God’s Sufficient Grace in Our Weakness
Day 3: God’s Sufficient Grace in Our Weakness
In our moments of deepest pain and turmoil, God’s answer is not always the removal of the problem, but the gift of His sustaining grace. This grace is not merely unmerited favor for sin; it is the divine enablement to endure and even thrive in our weakened state. His strength is made complete and finds its full expression when we are at our absolute weakest and most reliant on Him.
And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.
2 Corinthians 12:9 (KJV)
Reflection: Where are you currently feeling weak or inadequate? What would it look like today to stop asking for the thorn to be removed and instead ask for a fresh experience of His sufficient grace in that very weakness?
