Not Just Muscle
Is Sarah Really Strong?
Feb 18th
Although I’m always working on it, the answer is no. My strength is not that impressive. I haven’t been working on it that long, after all. I’m kind of a late-bloomer. My obsession with strength didn’t hit until I was nearly 40, following a severe accident. Since then, building strength has been one of my favorite things to do for fun, but I’m still pretty much average. As long as I’m improving, I’m okay with that. I’m not trying to outdo anybody, just get stronger. I train hard and I won’t settle for less than 100% effort in myself, though. I want to see change!
More Than Conquering
Feb 16th
No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. Romans 8: 37
Everyone has stuff they go through, and I love what this verse tells us about that. “All these things” are explained in the two prior verses. The list includes: trouble, hardship, persecution, famine, nakedness, danger and sword. That pretty much covers everything, in my book. So basically we are more than conquerors of anything and everything, with and through God. Not just conquerors, either. We are “more than” conquerors. It’s not even going to be a close match! The tough part is trusting God with this, and giving Him the control. The more you do it, though, the more you will conquer.
