Weakness

To see weakness as purely negative is a mistake. Weakness befalls us all, and in many ways. (Arthur Brooks, author and university professor)

Brooks continues: “. . . But it is also an opportunity. . . Stop hiding it, and don’t resist it.” When we acknowledge our weaknesses, we can reach out more easily to find the help we need. Strength often comes in learning and working with others. Brooks also suggests that once you’ve been open about your fears, you can relax and help others when they struggle

He comforts us in all our troubles so that we can comfort others. When they are troubled, we will be able to give them the same comfort God has given us. (2 Corinthians 1:4)
