Courage

Courage From Within

"I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me."
Philippians 4:13

Reflection

Paul wrote that in prison. It is not a promise of getting everything we want: it is a promise of enduring whatever comes, with Him.

Prayer

Jesus, strengthen me for whatever comes today. Amen!

Talk about it as a family

  1. Where was Paul when he wrote this?
  2. Is this a promise to get everything we want?
  3. What do you need strength to endure?

5-minute activity
