Who is weak, and I do not feel weak? Who is led into sin, and I do not inwardly burn?

 2 Corinthians 11:16-33

Since many are boasting in the way the world does, I too will boast. You gladly put up with fools since you are so wise! In fact, you even put up with anyone who enslaves you or exploits you or takes advantage of you or puts on airs or slaps you in the face. To my shame I admit that we were too weak for that!

Since many are boasting in the way the world does, I too will boast. You gladly put up with fools since you are so wise! In fact, you even put up with anyone who enslaves you or exploits you or takes advantage of you or puts on airs or slaps you in the face. To my shame I admit that we were too weak for that!

I have labored and toiled and have often gone without sleep; I have known hunger and thirst and have often gone without food; I have been cold and naked. Besides everything else, I face daily the pressure of my concern for all the churches. Who is weak, and I do not feel weak? Who is led into sin, and I do not inwardly burn?

If I must boast, I will boast of the things that show my weakness. The God and Father of the Lord Jesus, who is to be praised forever, knows that I am not lying. 

Why?

Paul described his effort to preach the gospel with all his effort and even lost his life. If he must boast, he will boast of the things that show his weakness. But many people boast their power, their honor and their rich.

Paul is more care about the life of Christians. 

How?

Everyone of us compare with Paul we are weak and shame before Paul. May my life and my witness could honor the Holy Name of Jesus Christ.
