The Word of God

The Word of the Lord came to me saying Your strength is determined by your  weakness. faith · 


Whether your parents are divorced, you have a health challenge, you have a learning disability, or you have a hard time making friends, God can use any of these qualities or experiences that you feel are weaknesses to help you become strong.


After you assess your strengths and weaknesses, spend some time to reflect and determine how you feel about what you found. Decide if you need or want to work  


Do you have characteristics, quirks, or looks that you wish you could change? We all might feel that sometimes we aren’t good enough, strong enough, or attractive enough.  We feel we have a weakness that affects our ability to do great things. 


The Bible, Paul felt the same way, yet he became someone who used his weakness to have a great impact on others.

Paul actually had something to boast about. You probably do too! We all have strengths, but God wants to use us through our strengths and weaknesses to show his power.


Paul was willing to admit that without his weaknesses, he would become proud and not be able to have the kind of influence on others that he really wanted to have.


What do you think is your big All praise to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. God is our merciful Father and the source of all comfort. He comforts us in all our troubles so that we can comfort others. When they are troubled, we will be able to give them the same comfort God has given us. For the more we suffer for Christ, the more God will shower us with his comfort through Christ.

2 Corinthians 1:3-5

When we feel weak, it is actually a way that we can find comfort in God.


When we read the Bible, we can find scriptures that teach us how God feels and cares about us. We learn the ways that God is great and able to handle any challenge.


How can you begin to get comfort from God through your weakness?


Even when we are weighed down with troubles, it is for your comfort and salvation! For when we ourselves are comforted, we will certainly comfort you. Then you can patiently endure the same things we suffer. We are confident that as you share in our sufferings, you will also share in the comfort God gives us.2 Corinthians 1:6-7


Hebrews 4:12 12 For the word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing to the division of soul and of spirit, of joints and of marrow, and discerning the thoughts and intentions of the heart.
