# 2 Corinthians 12:9 and Perseverance **2 Corinthians 12:9** states: "But he said to me, 'My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.' Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on me" (NIV). This verse teaches that perseverance comes not from our own strength but through God's grace, which is always enough to sustain us through trials. Rather than being defeated by our weaknesses and hardships, we can persevere confidently because God's power works most effectively in our limitations, transforming our struggles into testimonies of His strength.
