Always.
Sorry.....just couldn't resist it....I love their smiles in this picture.
Tonight, for youth group, Brad used Yoda's Jedi training of Luke Skywalker as an example and compared it to Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane when he kept finding the disciples sleeping....he said Yoda's quote..."Do or do not. There is no try." was similar to Jesus' statement to the disciples when he said, "The Spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak." He challenged them to continue training in their own discipleship and following Jesus Christ...asking the hard question of what God wants from them or what he wants to do through them and listening for the tough answer and being willing to push through their "flesh" to accomplish it. In our flesh...we struggle with trying and failing because only in the Spirit can we be given the power to do the things He asks of us. That is why we have to trust and have faith that He can and will do great things through us.
