Who is weak

"Who is weak, and I am not weak? who is offended, and I burn not? If I must needs glory, I will glory of the things which concern mine infirmities. The God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which is blessed for evermore, knoweth that I lie not" (2 Corinthians 11:29-31 KJV). The apostle Paul took the Lord's words seriously when He spoke to him. The apostle arose, with the Holy Spirit burning inside of him, and went and proclaimed the Good News to the Gentile nation. Nothing could stop Paul from preaching the Truth or going to the ends of the earth for Christ Jesus. Persecution, suffering, chains, prison, hunger, and the cold was so familiar to this great man of God. Death and illness was close to the apostle, but the Spirit of God, that was strongly rooted in him, got him through it. He found himself weak in infirmities, but through it all God answered his prayers by saying, "My grace is sufficient". No flu or snakebite was stopping this man of God. God gave him a destiny, a future, a hope and direction, which did not stop until the world heard the Good News of Christ Jesus. He went where no man would have gone, and he fought the enemy like no other. He finished the race. He fought the good fight of faith, pressing through in prayer, fasting, and worshiping the Lord. Nothing could stop this great man of God, nothing. God bless you. Amen
