2 Corinthians 12:8-10
New Matthew Bible
8 For this thing I besought the Lord three times, to put it from me. 9 And he said to me, My grace is sufficient for you, for my strength is made perfect through weakness. Very gladly therefore will I rest in my weakness, so that the strength of Christ may dwell in me. 10 Therefore I am content in infirmities, in reproach, in need, in persecutions, in anguish, for Christ’s sake. For when I am weak, then I am strong.

For when I am weak, then I am strong.(I)
