Letter to the Ephesians: Be Strengthened - Eph 6: 10-20

    What or who strengthens you? 

     This seems like such a simple question, but when we really dig deep into it, we find out so much about ourselves and where our heart is at. 

     Sometimes the beginning of this passage from chapter 6 in Ephesians is translated as "be strong", but when we are strong, we are relying on ourselves - what we can do. But the phrase "be strengthened" reminds us that it is an ongoing process of leaning into another person for strength. And for the author of Ephesians, we are strengthened in Christ. 

     How are you strengthened by Christ?
