Hey friends.
Today’s story is about a man who had been unable to walk for 38 years. Thirty-eight years. He was lying beside a pool, waiting for healing. Jesus walked up to him and asked a surprising question: “Do you want to get well?” Of course he did.
But the man started explaining why he couldn’t. “I have no one to help me. Someone always gets there before me.”
Excuses. Reasons. Delays.
Then Jesus said three simple words: “Get up. Walk.” And immediately — the man was healed. Here’s what stands out: He had been stuck for almost four decades. But one moment with Jesus changed everything.
Sometimes we get used to being stuck.
Used to the fear.
Used to the habit.
Used to the excuse.
But when Jesus says move — we move. Not because we feel ready. But because He said so. If there’s an area in your life where you feel stuck, listen closely.
Jesus may be saying, “Get up.”
Be strong. Be courageous.

The Catch
Hey friends. Welcome back to Strong & Courageous.
Today we’re talking about fishermen.
Peter and his friends had been fishing all night. And they caught nothing. They were tired. Frustrated. Probably ready to quit. Jesus stepped into Peter’s boat and said, “Put out into deep water, and let down your nets.” Peter answered honestly. “Master, we’ve worked hard all night and haven’t caught anything.” But then he said something powerful: “But because You say so, I will let down the nets.” And when they did — they caught so many fish that the nets began to break.
Here’s what I love: Peter didn’t understand it. It didn’t make sense. He was exhausted. But he obeyed anyway.
Sometimes Jesus asks you to try again. To forgive again. To trust again. Even when you’re tired. And sometimes the breakthrough comes after obedience — not before. If Jesus is asking you to take one more step, say what Peter said: “Because You say so.”
Be strong. Be courageous.

Jesus Raises Lazarus
Hey friends.
Today we’re talking about Lazarus.
Lazarus was sick. His sisters sent word to Jesus. But Jesus didn’t come right away. By the time He arrived, Lazarus had been dead for four days. Martha said, “Lord, if You had been here, my brother would not have died.”
Have you ever felt that? “Jesus, if You had just shown up sooner…” But Jesus said something powerful. “I am the resurrection and the life.” Then He went to the tomb and said, “Lazarus, come out.” And Lazarus walked out. Still wrapped in grave clothes.
This story reminds us: Even when it feels too late… it’s not too late for Jesus.
When hope feels buried, He still speaks life. Maybe something in your life feels sealed shut.
A dream.
A friendship.
A prayer you’ve been waiting on.
Jesus still calls things out of the grave. Trust Him. Be strong. Be courageous.
