Podcast: Light on Life Season Twelve Episode Twenty-Seven

Having a strong spirit, that is being strong in the Lord is an oft quoted word of encouragement that has entered many an ear. Thank God for those who love us enough to lift us and encourage us. But, sometimes we need help with this strength piece. Minister Bob Russell wrote about a father who watched through the kitchen window as his small son attempted to lift a large stone out of his sandbox. The boy was frustrated as he wrestled with the heavy object because he just couldn’t get enough leverage to lift it over the side. Finally the boy gave up and sat down dejectedly on the edge of the sandbox with his head in his hands. The father went outside and asked, “What’s wrong, Son? Can’t you lift that rock out?” “No, sir,” the boy said, “I can’t do it.” “Have you used all the strength that’s available to you?” the father asked. “Yes, sir,” the boy replied. “No, you haven’t,” the father said. “You haven’t asked me to help you.”1 We all need help. We all need strength — the strength that only God can gives by grace. Thank God it’s available for you and me. So that’s why in this podcast, we are covering What It Means to Have a Strong Spirit, that’s our focus on this week’s Light on Life.
