Embracing Weakness

Evening Service
Aug 12, 2018

People expend plenty of time and energy looking for the secret to success, and many approach the Christian life in the same way. As the apostle Paul modeled, however, the key to power, freedom, intimacy, and maturity in Christ lies not in our own strategies for achievement, but in embracing our weaknesses in light of God's gracious love. As we acknowledge that we are weak in every area, we also realize that the Christian life is entirely a matter of grace from beginning to end.
