Bible Craft Ideas: Power in Weakness 2 Corinthians 12:2-10

When we are weak, HE is strong! These crafts celebrate the hope that we have in knowing God's strength shines through in our weakness. We cannot do everything on our own, but we can do all things through Him. A "soft made strong cross" uses soft materials wrapped around a firm cross to remind children of where power comes from. A "How He Makes Me Strong Barbell" allows students to use a "weight" decoration to brainstorm how God strengthens us. Have fun and get crafty!

Bible Verses/story to Reference:
I know a man in Christ who fourteen years ago was caught up to the third heaven—whether in the body or out of the body I do not know, God knows. 3 And I know that this man was caught up into paradise—whether in the body or out of the body I do not know, God knows— 4 and he heard things that cannot be told, which man may not utter. 5 On behalf of this man I will boast, but on my own behalf I will not boast, except of my weaknesses— 6 though if I should wish to boast, I would not be a fool, for I would be speaking the truth; but I refrain from it, so that no one may think more of me than he sees in me or hears from me. 7 So to keep me from becoming conceited because of the surpassing greatness of the revelations, a thorn was given me in the flesh, a messenger of Satan to harass me, to keep me from becoming conceited. 8 Three times I pleaded with the Lord about this, that it should leave me. 9 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 of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest upon me. 10 For the sake of Christ, then, I am content with weaknesses, insults, hardships, persecutions, and calamities. For when I am weak, then I am strong. -2 Corinthians 12:2-10
