Weaknesses and foolishness in the world view is not seen the same way by our Lord. This is demonstrated again and again in every book of the Bible from Genesis to Revelation where God uses the most unlikely of people and sometimes implements to show his strength and wonderment at the hand of ordinary people seemingly able to do very little. The world view and Godly view are often opposites. When we are weak in human terms, we are able to be strong for The Lord. Ps Gina expounds on this theme starting with scriptures from I Corinthians 1:26-28 (NIV) "Brothers and sisters, think of what you were when you were called. Not many of you were wise by human standards; not many were influential; not many were of noble birth. But God chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise; God chose the weak things of the world to shame the strong. God chose the lowly things of this world and the despised things—and the things that are not—to nullify the things that are...."

Later she shows how in fact with Jesus all things are possible but without Jesus in our lives, we are lost!
