My weakness makes God's strength shine

"And lest I should be exalted above measure by the abundance of the revelations, a thorn in the flesh was given to me, a messenger of Satan to buffet me, lest I be exalted above measure. Concerning this thing I pleaded with the Lord three times that it might depart from me. And He said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in needs, in persecutions, in distresses, for Christ’s sake. For when I am weak, then I am strong." - 2 Corinthians 12:7-10

I pray that I can always remember this. I apologize to God for my weakness, for not being able to do all the things that I think I should be able to do - as a wife, mother, daughter, friend. But then these verses come to my mind and I'm strengthend. It's not about me and what I can do, but what God can do through me. His light shines all the more brightly when it flows through the weakest of vessels.
