Have you ever been intimidated, afriad, overwhelmed, in over your head and just simply disheartened? Sometimes I go through seasons, situations and struggles that could feel really overpowering – dying babies with Saving Moses, evil people masquerading as helpful, discouraging words from close friends and more. I was recently in some of this kind of quagmire and my husband & I were talking about a few things related to these struggles when I remembered something cool from the New Zealand national Rugby team: the Haka
I showed my husband a video of the Haka & it stirred up a few things in my heart:
- nothing is impossible with God (Luke 1:37)
- greater is He who is in me than he who is in the world (1 John 4:4)
- Jesus has overcome the world (John 16:33)
- Jesus holds everything together (Col 1:17)
- this lite & momentary affliction is working in me a far greater weight of glory (2Cor 4:17)
