"I can do all things through him that strengtheneth me." Philippians 4:13
Lots of people think this means I can do profitable things like enduring the taunts of a bully, praying for good promotions, or claiming exceptional blessings. Isn't this what Janice did when she procured our free stays at the ritzy hotel? Or...
I looked over at my IT-minded son. To be fair, he is NOT one of those who is addicted to his electronic devices; but I have heard of people who cannot live
without it. This made me think about a reading for Phil. 4:13 in context with the verses before it. What about--I can live a week without a cellphone "through him that strengtheneth me"?
That's what that verse was saying, wasn't it? I can be content in all circumstances!
