2 Corinthians 12:9-11

9 But he said to me, ^a“My grace is sufficient for you, for ^bmy power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that ^cthe power of Christ may rest upon me. 10 ^dFor the sake of Christ, then, ^eI am content with weaknesses, insults, hardships, persecutions, and calamities. For ^fwhen I am weak, then I am strong.
