If I always worked out of my strength, first of all, I would be very limited in what I could do. Secondly, would I really be doing everything for God’s glory? To do for the glory of God is to allow God to be seen as God. And how do people see Christ in me if I am always leaving to my own strength, will, and might? 

Instead, I’ll recognize my weakness as a strength because it is through my weaknesses that God can be strong.
