By What Power?


One of my sons said they want to have big muscles.
"Cool. Keep in mind big muscles don't make you a strong man."

Check out the ship above.
For all the wood, rope and metal..
This boat can't go anywhere without the wind.

You are a strong man when you live humility.
You are a strong man when you honor and respect your wife.
You get stronger as you learn to pray from the heart.

Muscles are cool - but don't worship them.
I admire the men who lay down their lives for their congregations
or their families.

Be strong in faith first.
Don't worship the body;
worship the God who formed our bodies out of dust.

Amen.
