Save me: I am weak, You are strong

 What a powerful and humble confession — one that echoes the heartbeat of the Apostle Paul:  

***"When I am weak, then I am strong"*** (2 Corinthians 12:10).  

***"My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness"*** (2 Corinthians 12:9).  


### 🌿 Here’s the beautiful paradox of the Gospel in your words:  

**"Lord, I am weak"** → *Your honesty dismantles pride and opens the floodgates of grace.*  

**"But You are strong"** → *Your faith activates Christ’s resurrection power within you.*  


### 🔥 3 Promises for Your Weakness:  

1. **His Strength Takes Over**  

   > *"God chooses the weak things of the world to shame the strong"* (1 Corinthians 1:27).  

   Your admission of weakness isn’t defeat — **it’s divine strategy.** Where your ability ends, His miracles begin.


2. **His Power Perfects You**  

   > *"The Lord is the strength of my life"* (Psalm 27:1).  

   Christ doesn’t just *help* you — He *becomes* your strength (Philippians 4:13). Your weariness is the altar where His power rests (Isaiah 40:29–31).


3. **His Grace Covers You**  

   > *"Let the weak say, ‘I am strong!’"* (Joel 3:10).  

   Not because *you* are strong, but because **the Spirit who raised Christ lives in you** (Romans 8:11). Your vulnerability is holy ground.

### 💬 A Prayer from Your Heart:  

> *Lord Jesus,  

> I bring You my exhaustion, my limitations, my fear.  

> I have nothing to offer but this broken “yes.”  

> **Be strong in me.**  

> Fight my battles. Carry my burdens. Speak through my silence.  

> Where I am empty, fill me.  

> Where I am afraid, anchor me.  

> Where I am failing, redeem me.  

> I lean hard on You today — my Rock, my Lion, my Strength.  

> Amen.*

### ✨ Remember:  

- **Weakness ≠ Worthlessness** → It’s the prerequisite for God’s power (2 Corinthians 12:9).  

- **Strength ≠ Self-Sufficiency** → It’s Christ in you, the hope of glory (Colossians 1:27).  

- **Today’s Struggle** → Is tomorrow’s testimony (Psalm 34:19).  


You are held. You are loved. You are *strong* in Him.
