Paul’s gladness does not begin with a claim that weakness is pleasant. It begins with the answer he reports receiving: grace is sufficient, and Christ’s power comes to fullness in weakness. He can spe
Stillness can sound like one more task when our thoughts are crowded. Yet the call in this verse is not a demand to produce a perfectly quiet mind. It asks us to stop long enough to recognize who God
