The strongest man cannot manage to keep themselves strong enough.
Samson had his Delilah, Achilles had his achilles's heal, Solomon had his pride. So many others even me.
Can one manage to hide his weaknesses? Can one manage to keep secrets?
One way or the other the fear that his secrets will be known will haunt him so much that he will reveal them even without knowing that he is revealing.
Just that mare fact that one is trying so hard to hide his secrets raises so much curiosity that his need for secrecy escalates indefinitely.
Even the best cryptosystem has a very fatal foolish weakness. The very fatal viruses have equally fatal weaknesses. Your very strength is your very weakness since that whats others will keep trying to fight at to take you down and some will not give up until they find a hole.
How can one be strong enough? How can secure himself enough?
The foolishness of God is wiser than men the weakness of God is stronger than men. For you see brethren that not many wise according according to flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called. But God has chosen the foolish things of the world to put to shame the wise, and God has chosen the weak things of the world to put to shame the things which are mighty; and the base things of the world and the things which are despised God has chosen, and the things which are not, to bring to nothing things that are, that no flesh should glory in His presence. But of Him you are in Christ Jesus, who become for us wisdom from God - and righteousness and sanctified and redemption - that as it written, "He who glories, let him glory in the Lord."Here is how our foolishness tells us. Lets keep the bad things we do in the dark for these things bring the work of God down. We say we can't attract other people to God if they see our bad works. However hard we try to hide them these bad things stink so much that they repel those who would have been saved because we seem so strong to be like us. Furthermore, what shall it profit a man to "save" the whole world and lose his own soul by hiding his sin? Leaders are in so much danger regarding this than mare Christians.
NKJV, 1 Corinthians 1:25-31.
There is no denying that we are weak. Paul admitted His weakness before God. God assured Him that in our weakness is when God grace becomes sufficient:
In God's strength alone is where we are strong.
In Jesus alone are we saved.
In truth alone we find safety.
What we try so hard to keep we lose. What God gives no man can take away. We lose what God has given us by trying to keep it. How do we get what God has promised us? Is it in our strength? It comes at a time we don't expect. There are times we even refuse it but it comes with blessings. God's love is this great that He knows His gift is often refused and often despised yet He so cares that He doesn't even care about the destruction of His Son who should be in Heaven for sure but has to send Him to hell to set these people free who were not strong enough to fight the oppression and the lies to be set free.
They did not see Him as a father who has to care his family and give them good things. Nor did they see the Holy Spirit as Mother who grieves so much for His child. They did not see Jesus as the child who loved so much His gift, His lovely wife.
