Title: Strong Enough

The LORD is the strength of his people, a fortress of salvation for his anointed one. – Psalm 28:8

A few summers back, I broke my ankle while camping with the family. It required surgery, leaving me on crutches for two months, a cane for a few weeks, and physical therapy for six weeks.

I’ve never felt weaker. Even after I was “better,” I couldn’t jump, run, or move as I could before. Strength had left me.

That’s a horrible feeling for a man. And I think because we hate that feeling, it keeps us from trying some stuff the Lord is leading us into. If the Lord is leading you, he will provide the strength. Be confident in this. He isn’t looking to you because you are “strong enough.” He is looking to you because you will trust in His strength.

What are you avoiding because you don’t want to feel weak?

Real Men draw strength from the Lord

Milo and his family currently live in North Carolina, where he is a staff Chaplain for MAG-14 at Cherry Point, NC. As a staff chaplain, he is responsible for the spiritual well-being of over 1200 marines and their families. He does this by participating in training events, deploying with the squadrons he covers, providing a constant presence of support and working with the command in facilitating general care and response in the face of family/unit emergencies.

Milo and Bethany have been in full-time ministry since 1999, and have enjoyed a wide variety of experiences and opportunities. In 2003, God brought Andrew into their lives, and in 2005 Olivia was the fourth addition to the family. Milo has stated repeatedly that God’s greatest tool in shaping his theology, philosophy of life and walk with Christ has been his family. Woodworking, riding his motorcycle, movies, camping, and time with his family are some of his favorite things to enjoy.
