When I Am Weak

Name Date

Read the Story

Paul had a hard problem. It was like a thorn that hurt him. He did not like it.

Paul prayed and asked God to take it away. He asked three times. God did not take it away. God said His grace was enough for Paul.

God said His power works best when people are weak. Paul was glad. He knew God would make him strong.

Memory Verse

“On behalf of such a one I will boast, but on my own behalf I will not boast, except in my weaknesses.”
