Today we look into a two-fold promise Jesus makes to us: “Here on earth we will have many trials and sorrows,” “but take heart, because I have overcome the world.” When we are weak and unable to help ourselves, we can take heart and confidence that the God we follow is stronger and more able than we are. We can’t let pride shift our focus from God to us. Our weaknesses can be a blessing, and in our weakness God’s supernatural strength can be displayed.
