Take a knee. When we get knocked down, when we go through struggles and when we hit a wall what do we do, we take a knee. We take a knee not because we are weak but because at that time we take it to Jesus. And then we get up, no matter what we get up and we keep moving forward.
But when we can’t get up on our own? We as men are usually told asking for help is a sign of weakness. I don’t believe that, I think not asking for help when you need it is the sign of weakness. A true HIM knows he can’t do everything on his own and there is a time when he needs is Father in Heaven, and his friends. Jesus said in John 15:12-14 “My command is this, love each other. Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for their friends. You are my friends if you do what I command”
There is no doubt that Jesus paid the ultimate debt and gave his life for us, and I don’t think he meant for us to just give up our lives for our friends. But it does mean we need to make sacrifices and give up our time, talent, treasures, etc, in order to be with a friend in need and left them up. I think we can all think of a friend who might need a hand. I encourage each of you to send them a message, give them a call, take them to lunch, and help them stand up and keep moving forward.
