"HE MAKES US VICTORIOUS"

Read 1 Corinthians 15:57 TLB

When Marino Marini was a young man, he fashioned the first statue in a series of a man on a horse, in bronze. The rider appears happy and hopeful.

But as Marini grew older, the riders appear less confident and cheerful.

Reflecting on the changes, the artist said, "If you look at my statues of the last twelve years, you will notice that the feeling of panic increases with each new figure. In every figure, I tried to express a deepening sense of enslavement by uncontrollable forces."

But God wants you to trust, not tremble; to be victors, not victims. "He makes us victorious through Jesus Christ our Lord."

Prayer: Increase our faith, heavenly Father, so that by Thy grace we may turn our trials into triumphs, our obstacles into opportunities, our gloom into gladness: through Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
