2 Corinthians 12:8-10

AUV(i) 8 I pled with the Lord about this matter three times, that He would remove this problem from me. 9 But God said to me, “My unearned favor is enough for you, for my power is made complete in [your] weakness.” Therefore, I will most gladly boast, so that the power of Christ can rest on me. 10 So, I am pleased to [endure] weaknesses, insults, hardships, persecutions and difficulties, [all] for Christ’s sake. For when I am weak [physically], then I am strong [spiritually].
