Reflection: How Will You Compete with Horses?
from Plumfield Moms Hosted by Plumfield Moms
If Paul considered his affliction light and momentary, what are we called to think about ours? He didn’t have anything we can’t have. When he told the Ephesians to “be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his might,” it wasn’t a suggestion. It was a command followed by instructions on how to do that. “Put on the whole armor of God,” and when you have done everything, “stand firm.” When he wrote to the Corinthians, Paul didn’t say he had exclusive access to the mind of Christ. He said we have the mind of Christ. We’re not competing with horses on our own power. “It is God who works in you, both to will and to work for his good pleasure” (Phil. 2:13).
