why not?

a faithful man of God openly, even gladly, admits his weaknesses, because the power of Christ is resting upon him. his deep needs and the Lord’s great supply combine to make him an honest, mighty man.
-ray ortlund

why not be vulnerable? believer, you are mighty when weak.

we have this treasure in earthen vessels, so that the surpassing greatness of the power will be of God and not from ourselves

most gladly, therefore, i will rather boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may dwell in me. therefore i am well content with weaknesses, with insults, with distresses, with persecutions, with difficulties, for Christ’s sake; for when I am weak, then I am strong.
