【双语灵修】在软弱上的新力量NEW STRENGTH IN WEAKNESS

哥林多后书 12:9-10

他对我说：“我的恩典够你用的，因为我的能力是在人的软弱上显得完全。”所以，我更喜欢夸自己的软弱，好叫基督的能力覆庇我。 我为基督的缘故，就以软弱、凌辱、急难、逼迫、困苦为可喜乐的，因我什么时候软弱，什么时候就刚强了。

在软弱上的新力量

“他对我说：‘我的恩典够你用的，因为我的能力是在人的软弱上显得完全。’” - 林后 12:9-10

生活总有办法让我们学会谦卑。无论是身体患病、个人陷入挣扎，还是遭遇意外的挑战，我们常常发现自己身处困境，感到自己软弱无力、一事无成。但正是在这些软弱的时刻，神的能力才愈发显明。

我渐渐明白，唯有在我感觉自己精疲力竭、无法再付出什么了，神的能力才会在我里面兴起。我还记得曾有这样一段经历，那时我努力平衡个人生活、工作和事工，内心充满压力，疲惫不堪，甚至不确定自己还能坚持多久。

然而，通过祷告，神提醒我：即使在我的软弱上，祂也能彰显自己的能力。于是我不再独自苦苦硬撑，而是开始倚靠神的力量，相信祂必扶持我前行。如果你感到软弱，请记得：神从未期望你靠着自己变得坚强。祂的恩典绰绰有余。祂会赐予你力量，在你软弱的时候支撑你，带你度过困境，并且使你变得比想像中更加坚强。

祷告

圣灵啊，感谢你在我软弱的时候成为我的力量。求你帮助我安息在你的能力之中，信靠你的恩典足够我用。阿们。

NEW STRENGTH IN WEAKNESS

He said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.”

—2 Corinthians 12:9

Life has a way of humbling us. Whether that takes place through physical illness, personal struggles, or unexpected challenges, we often find ourselves in places where we feel weak and incapable.

But in those moments of weakness, God’s power is made evident.

I’ve learned that in times when I feel I have nothing left to give, God’s strength rises within me. I remember a situation in which I was trying to balance my personal life, work, and ministry, feeling overwhelmed and worn out. I wasn’t sure how much longer I could keep going.

Yet, through prayer, God reminded me that in my weakness, he could show his power. Instead of pushing through on my own, I began to lean into God’s strength, trusting that he would carry me.

When you feel weak, remember that God doesn’t expect you to be strong on your own. His grace is more than enough. His strength in your weakness is the very thing that will carry you through and make you stronger than you ever imagined.

Holy Spirit, thank you for being my strength in times of weakness. Help me to rest in your power and trust in your sufficiency. Amen.
