and I wondered what the secret was
and I couldn't figure out that that is what verse thirteen was saying
the verse I had known my entire life
that's the secret to contentment
granted, knowing this isn't enough
application is where I struggle
application is always the catch....my life would be GREAT as long as I didn't have to apply what I have learned
ReplyDeleteI agree. Application is quite difficult. Understanding that Christ gives us strength is paramount, but actually allowing that to affect the way you face each situation is just tough. Because it involves 1) the acknowledgement to Christ that we need His strength 2) the willingness to rely on His strength as our own and 3) putting to rest our own strength in the midst of it all. That's a lot of abstract things to try to do and also not try to do...
