The strength of weakness.

• 2 Corinthians 2:12 (NIV84)

---

The fragrance of a grace filled life.

Don't hear too many churches trying to "out grace" others!

From v13 - Failure, weakness, frustration and despair.
To v14 - success, strength, satisfaction and hope!

1: Victory - how do we live our lives? v14a
• God is much bigger than ALL our strengths and failures.

2: Fragrance - how we relate to people. V14b-16
• We are "the aroma of Christ" - some will love it and some will hate it.

3: Sincerity - how we approach ministry v17.
• Don't "peddle" the gospel, but be real, sincere and genuine.
