2 Corinthians 12:9
But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest upon me.
Chances are you either struggle with self-esteem, or you have too much of it. Nobody is perfect, and certainly nobody is without faults, shortcomings, and sin. 1 John tells us that “if we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.” But therein lies the beauty of God’s grace: that even while you were a sinner, Jesus died for you, and even though you have weaknesses, He uses them for His glory. His strength and never-ending love are most obvious when they’re present in a broken life, taking who some would call a lost cause, and using them to do great things.
