Vol. 15 No. 10
Dear
Friend,
In this
season of football playoffs, you can tune in and watch exceedingly strong men
tossing each other around like so many toothpicks. Their strength is
remarkable.
Consider
the various kinds of strength people have in addition to the strength of their
physical bodies:
strength of character,
strength of will,
and strength
of conviction.
We have
many kinds of strength, yet we also know
there are times and situations that appear to demand more strength from us than
we have to give.
David
wrote, "He [God] rescued me from my powerful enemy, from my foes, who
were too strong for me" (Ps.18:17 NIV).
God helps
those who cannot help themselves!
That is
grace.
After God
delivered David from his enemies, David sang, "It is God who arms me with
strength" (2 Samuel 22:33 NIV).
Trust God
to arm you with strength and to sustain and guide you through every situation
of your life.
Take a
moment to offer to the Lord the strength you do have as your means of serving
Him.
Trust Him
to serve you and supply you with His strength according to your need.
E. Stanley Ott
