Strength When You Feel Empty

A reflection on 2 Corinthians 12:9 and receiving Christ's strength in weakness.

Warm devotional artwork for grace in weakness

My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness.

2 Corinthians 12:9

Feeling empty can make us assume we are unusable, but Scripture tells a different story. Weakness can become the place where Christ's strength is displayed.

God does not ask us to pretend we are full. He invites us to receive sufficient grace right where the lack is obvious.

Tell the Lord where you feel empty today, then ask for enough grace for the next faithful act.
