Evening: Psalms 19, 46; Mark 4:35-41
While I love the world and its many rich cultures, I am a disciple of Jesus partly because at every turn, Jesus’ Way takes me down unexpected, counter-cultural paths. And they just feel right. Like St. Paul’s bold statement: “I will boast of the things that show my weakness.” Though I was rigorously schooled in the ‘I am strong’ Stoicism of Britain, I find Paul’s words more honest. If I am truly strong, it is because I first know and accept that I am weak. For whenever I know my weakness, then, in God, I can be strong.
