Scripture reading
I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.
–Philippians 4:13
Thought of the Day
Last week, Paul Hughes was on a roll. Literally. Hughes, a seventy-four year old man from Wisconsin had an amazing couple of days. On Monday, while playing golf at the Pleasant View golf course, Mr. Hughes hit a hole in one on the 5th hole. The next day, Mr. Hughes decided to go bowling with some buddies at Bowling Green Lanes. You’ll never guess what happened. Paul bowled one strike, and then another, and then one more. When it was all over, Paul had bowled ten in a row, a perfect game. I told you he was on a roll. What are the odds of that happening? I don’t know. I do know that as amazing as Mr. Hughes feats, they pale in comparison to what we can do through Christ Jesus. I know that God gives us courage when we need courage. He gives us patience when we really need patience. He gives us love when we need love the very most. He gives us what we need when we need it. Guess what? He also celebrates with us when we do amazing things here on His earth.
Prayer
Lord, Help me to know that You give me more than I can ever imagine. Amen.
