1Matthew also chooses this word in Matthew 8:10.

2“And whatever you ask in prayer, you will receive, if you have faith” (Matt. 21:22).

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 12:10

ARE YOU CONTENT WITH WEAKNESSES?

PAUL AND HUMILITY

2 Corinthians 11–12

EVERY DAY, AS WE seek to follow Jesus, we deal with incessant weaknesses in our bodies, emotions, relationships, families, vocations, and churches. We are “beset with weakness” (Heb. 5:2). And they tempt us to discouragement, sometimes exasperation.

But one of the precious gifts of 2 Corinthians is that, through Paul, God teaches us a great gospel paradox of the life of faith: God’s grace is more clearly seen and more deeply savored in our weaknesses than in our strengths.
