WHEN WE ARE WEAK, WE ARE STRONG

God loves paradoxes and contradictions. When we are weak, we are strong. Every curse becomes a blessing, and stumbling blocks can be turned into stepping stones; the valley of Achor where all was destroyed can be a doorway of hope.

Ah God, You with the Maker's eye,

can tell if all that's feared is real,

and see if life is more than what

we suffer, dread, despise and feel.

If some by faith no longer stand

nor hear the truth Your voice intones,

stretch out Your hand to help Your folk

from stumbling blocks to stepping stones.

From Celtic Daily Prayer.
