Life is full of hard things we have to face, and some of them can leave us feeling weak or defeated. Yet, while we are not called to live a defeated life, we can take comfort in knowing that weakness is actually a position of Kingdom strength. The paradox of “when I am weak, then I am strong” is not because we possess strength in ourselves, but because our strength is found in Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit within us. The Holy Spirit is our advocate, and His fruit equips us with everything we need to face life’s challenges.
