Read 2 Corinthians 12:5-10 (https://bit.ly/3l1T6ZH)

When we think of the greatest of the greats in Scripture, Paul is one who comes to mind. He went on three missionary journeys, founded many churches, and wrote two-thirds of what we call the New Testament. Compared to Paul we think, “What have I accomplished?” But Paul would tell you that he did not boast in the journeys, the churches, or the letters. He boasted only in his weaknesses, because it is in Paul’s weaknesses that God was able to work in him and through him. We all have weaknesses – that thing that holds us back, trips us up, and makes us self-conscious. Those are the things God wants to use. Be open to where God is leading you, even if it seems impossible for you to accomplish. In your own strength you can’t, but through you, God can!
