“I can do all things through him who strengthens me.” Philippines 4:13 ESV
Philippians 4:13 stands as a beacon of strength in popular culture, offering solace to those facing life's trials. Yet, amidst its fame, the context leading up to this verse often goes overlooked. Imagine if Paul had prefaced verse 13 with his customary "Therefore," prompting us to ponder its significance.
So, let's delve into it now. Prior verses (Philippians 4:11-12) reveal Paul's profound understanding of contentment, regardless of circumstance. He speaks of mastering abundance and scarcity, unveiling a process grounded in faith.
Paul's ability to "do all things" stems from his adherence to Christ's teachings—a process evident in his journey through plenty and paucity. It prompts reflection: What's your process for navigating life's peaks and valleys? How do you guide your family through these tumultuous terrains? And if you lack a roadmap, whose example might you emulate?
Great places to develop processes are in small groups at your church or one of the many events led by your Leadership Harbor coaches.
Go, outlive your limits!
