Philippians 4:13

13 I can do all things through aChrist which bstrengtheneth me.

Hallie Caldwell

"One important reason this is a favorite scripture is because its simple and short. There are some beautiful and wonderful series of scripture verses out there but for them to help me, they need to be short enough to pop in my head when I need them. This is just one sentence but to me it makes all the difference and opens many doors. Doing All things through Christ not only applies to commandments but trials, discouragement and changes in attitude. No matter what, if we put our faith in Him there is always a way. Sometimes that means we need to change or do something different, but we can do it if we let Him help."

I feel like this scripture is a part of many other long and wordy scriptures. I like this one as well though because it is straight to the point. Its very simple. You do this, and this happens. So why do we sometimes not listen to this? Why would we not do this if its just so simply stated? I think that this gospel can be simple. But, because we are not simple human beings and we are not perfect, its hard to make a simple gospel. There is a lot of complex ideas and thoughts behind this verse. There are may ways that this verse can affect you. So im going to bring this out to everyone, what does this verse mean to you?
