"I can do all things through Him who strengthens me." Philippians 4:13 is often used as motivational tool for achieving greatness. For that reason it is often used by athletes as part of their pre-game rituals. But when you look at it in context, it's revealed to be much more about contentment through Christ's presence than it is about supernatural abilities. The apostle Paul's secret to being content in any circumstance can be distilled down to this— 'With Christ through this.' In this message, Brock reminds us that Jesus, described as 'relaxed' by theologian Dallas Willard, offers us His sustaining power in all circumstances. This message invites us to spend time with the 'relaxed one,' allowing His peace to permeate our often anxious lives. It's a call to trust in God's control, even when we feel powerless, and to find strength in His presence regardless of our situation.
