9 But he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power*is perfected in weakness."*

Therefore, I will most gladly boast all the more about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may reside in me. 10 So I take pleasure in weaknesses, insults, hardships, persecutions, and in difficulties, for the sake of Christ.  * For when I am weak, then I am strong.  *
