“But God chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise; God chose the weak things of the world to shame the strong. God chose the lowly things of this world and the despised things — and the things that are not — to nullify the things that are, so that no one may boast before him.” –1 Corinthians 1:27-29
I don’t like being weak. One of my earliest recollections of weakness was when I was a toddler. I wetted my pants while someone else was in the bathroom. I stood in the hallway crying in front of the bathroom door. And instead of being sympathetic, my mother gave me a scolding. It was so unfair! I couldn’t control it. Why was I being punished?
