Strength in Weakness

Vulnerability & Power

Scripture

2 Corinthians 12:9

“But he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness."”

Devotion

October's harsh weather and shorter days reveal weakness. You cannot warm yourself through will alone. You cannot make the sun brighter. You are limited. Scripture teaches that in weakness, God's power is revealed. When you acknowledge limitation, when you stop pretending to be invulnerable, when you accept help, grace flows. Your weakness is not shameful; it is where God works.

Today’s Step

What weakness is October revealing? Can you accept it and ask for help?

Prayer

God, help me to accept my weakness. Help me to ask for help. Help Your power to flow through my limitations.
