Leif & Kathy: God’s Strength in Our Weakness

Have you ever felt weak and wondered what to do with that weakness, or even what its purpose is? Have you ever wrestled with the "why" behind life's detours – like the loss of a loved one, health challenges, or career setbacks? Leif and Kathy share their own journeys and how scripture answers questions like: Why does God allow us to be weak? And what should we do when we find ourselves in that place? Whether you're in a season of weakness or feeling strong, this episode offers hope and encouragement right where you are.Scriptures referenced2 Corinthians 12:9-10 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. For the sake of Christ, then, I am content with weaknesses, insults, hardships, persecutions, and calamities. For when I am weak, then I am strong.1 Corinthians 1:27-29 But God chose what is foolish in the world to shame the wise; God chose what is weak in the world to shame the strong; God chose what is low and despised in the world, even things that are not, to bring to nothing things that are, so that no human being might boast in the presence of God.1 Corinthians 1:18 For the word of the cross is folly to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.Romans 8:38-39 For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.Resources: Dark Clouds Deep Mercy Stay in touch!
