Do you want to be strong through the rest of 2021? Do you want to be physically, spiritually, mentally, socially and relationally strong to finish this year?
We need to be spiritually stronger, physically stronger, stronger in our finances and stronger in our relationships.
We are here to worship the Lord, and we always need to be ready to go!
Samson was strong! He was like Rambo, but spiritually he was like Pee Wee Herman.
He has so many things going for him (talent, strong, good looks, and ability). He woke up one day, and his strength was gone.
