Rhonda,

Here is this passage in the Amplified.  I'm not exactly sure what that 
perfect is.  Amplified uses the word fulfilled.  I love this rendering 
though, especially the pitch a tent part.

But He said to me, My grace (My favor and loving-kindness and mercy) is 
enough for
you [sufficient against any danger and enables you to bear the trouble 
manfully];
for My strength and power are made perfect (fulfilled and completed) and 
show themselves most effective in [your] weakness. Therefore, I will all the 
more
gladly glory in my weaknesses and infirmities, that the strength and power 
of Christ
(the Messiah) may rest (yes, may
pitch a tent over and dwell) upon me!

So for the sake of Christ, I am well pleased and take pleasure in 
infirmities, insults,
hardships, persecutions, perplexities and distresses; for when I am weak in 
human strength], then am I [truly] strong (able, powerful in divine 
strength).

Praying for you Rhonda.

Hugs,
Vicki
