Is Weakness Really a Weakness?

Moses was not a good speaker, David was too young, Bethlehem was too small, Gideon was too weak, the disciples were too ordinary, children not important enough, and Paul had to endure an ongoing ‘messenger of Satan’. A significant ‘weakness’ thread seems to weave it’s way through the Bible. Why? That is precisely what Paul was also asking and Jesus told him, ‘My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” 2 Corinthians 12:9
