2 Corinthians 12:8-10

8Concerning this I implored the Lord 1three times that it might leave me. 9And He has said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for 2power is perfected in weakness.” Most gladly, therefore, I will rather 3boast 4about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may dwell in me. 10Therefore 5I am well content with weaknesses, with 6insults, with 7distresses, with 8persecutions, with 9difficulties, 10for Christ’s sake; for 11when I am weak, then I am strong.
