I recall an incident from several years ago during an activity where the person leading said, “If you’re weak, this isn’t the place for you; you can leave.” I was struck by these words, feeling a sense of indignation at the arrogance displayed by those who believe they are strong while labeling others as weak.
However, weakness, especially in a spiritual context, holds a profound advantage. It teaches us not to rely solely on our own strength or abilities but to turn to someone far superior: Jesus Christ.
The Bible conveys this beautifully in Joel 3:10, urging us to transform our weakness into strength through faith: “Beat your plowshares into swords and your pruninghooks into spears: let the weak say, I am strong.”
