Day 5 of Cultivating Contentment
Reading: 2 Corinthians 12:9-10
Devotional: Paul's thorn in the flesh reminds us that God's power is made perfect in our weakness. Often, we try to hide or overcome our weaknesses on our own. But God invites us to boast in our weaknesses, for it's there that Christ's power rests on us. Today, consider an area of weakness or struggle in your life. Instead of being frustrated by it, offer it to God. Ask Him to demonstrate His power through your weakness. Remember, when you are weak, then you are strong in Christ. Let this paradox free you from the pressure to be perfect, and instead, rely fully on God's grace and strength.
