"...a thorn was given me in the flesh...Three times I pleaded with the Lord about this, that it should leave me. 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. For the sake of Christ, then, I am content with weaknesses, insults, hardships, persecutions, and calamities. For when I am weak, then I am strong." - 2 Corinthians 12:7-10 How can we be strong when we are weak? It doesn't seem to make sense, does it? Without a biblical perspective, it would be hard to understand this. However, in God's kingdom, Christ has come to make things right, to turn things upside down, so it does make perfect sense when we understand God's grace toward us and what it means to live humbly before our Creator God.
