Could you imagine your life without any weaknesses?

What would it be like if every room you walked into you felt confident?

Everything that you did, you knew you could conquer, you had confidence in all of the things.

What weaknesses would you wish you could change

if you could change some or change any or change them all?

Right now, in these next few moments,

just think of the top one or two on your list.

What do you wish you could change?

With that in mind, there is a story of one of the great saints of old, and he had a weakness. We don't know specifically what it is, scholars who

tried to speculate for ages. And he came to God and he said,

God, would you take this away?

God, would you remove this weakness?

I can't do this anymore.

It says that he asked multiple times for God to remove this weakness.

But the answer that God gave him was fascinating.

God said, my grace is all you need, for my power is the greatest when you are weak.

And that great saint went on to respond and say, so when I feel weakness and endure mistreatment, I made

stronger.

For my weakness becomes a portal to God's power.

And I believe in these next few moments of prayer that our perspective is going to shift on our

weaknesses.

And I'm not saying that God's answer to this saint is going to be his answer to you.
