But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest upon me.
This verse really hit me hard today, from the fact that I try too hard to make myself really strong, whether it's intellectually, mentally, or even physically. But it clearly says that God's power is made perfect in my WEAKNESS. If I strive to become strong from my own power, where will God's power be? I'd much rather have God's power than my own.
And another thing: I guess it's not bad to boast, only if it's about declaring my weakness or proclaiming God's name. I should do that more often.
