Listen "When the Challenges are Bigger Than Us"
Episode Synopsis
Most of the challenges that we face are far bigger than us. They have a power and a vastness to them that far exceeds whatever resources we have to bring to whatever battle we're fighting this time around. And while we might be able to make a dent in some of these things, and while we might be able to nudge them a bit in a better direction, we rarely have the kind of impact that we would want to have.
So why are the challenges in life typically bigger than what we have on hand to fight them? Why is it that the effects that we can have on them are marginal at best and non-existent at worst? Why have we been positioned with such minimal abilities in the face of such monstrous liabilities? Could it be that these realities are the evidence of God and the resource of prayer that we have been given to engage this God? Could it be that maybe prayer is the answer that we don't believe is the answer? Is it possible that this antiquated act of coming before God is not antiquated at all?
