Strong vs. Weak

Emotionally and mentally, would you consider yourself a strong person or a weak one?
There have been points in my life where I could have answered that question either way. I have come to realize, though, that what others may perceive as weakness is actually strength. It takes courage to admit we need help. It takes courage to express emotions of hurt and pain. It takes courage confess we need to rest. And as a Christian, we know that in our weakest times, we are most successful. It is in those times we cry out to God and allow Him to do the work through us.
II Corinthians 12:9 reads, "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 about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me."

The Love Scriptures Like the Joy of the Lord is Our Strength and His Strength is Made Perfect in Our Weakness and I can do All things through Jesus Christ Who Strengthens Me. I know that in my Flesh I am Weak But I Know that i Can Accomplish through Jesus Christ My Lord and Savior. I also Love the Scripture that says all things work together for good to those Who Love God and Who Are Called According To His Purpose. All things Not Some So whether it is good of Bad God has Our Backs we Just Need to Continue To trust in the Lord With All Our Hearts and Lean Not Unto Our Own Understanding and In All Our Ways Acknowledge Him and He Shall Direct Our Paths.
