Continue ReadingWhere Do You Find Strength?
Many of us walk or exercise in some way to build or maintain our physical strength. I was also wondering about spiritual strength. There’s much evil around us, and we need strength to stand up to it, fight it off, and not get sucked up in it. So, what can we do for spiritual strength?

I’m becoming an old codger. Actually, that is redundant, as the Oxford American Dictionary defines a codger as an elderly man, especially one who is old-fashioned or eccentric.
