My
high school physics class was a challenge. Why? Perhaps it's because tinkering
in a lab with pulleys on a robe, blocks of wood on a plank, or watching wheels
turn, just didn't interest me.
Theoretically
power is the ability to do work. But at sixteen years of age who cared?
On
July 5th the Atlanta Braves hit four home runs in a baseball game against the
Chicago Cubs at Turner Field. The fans went crazy. And yes, it was more power
at the plate.
Then
there is that famous hymn: There's power
in the blood; power in the blood; power in the blood... That's a powerful
statement. In the blood of Jesus Christ our sins are forgiven. The power of
salvation is in the blood.
Today,
as I brain storm the word power lots of things cross my mind. We use power,
mentally and physically, in everything we do. I just never thought about it as
work. And surely, as long as there is life on this earth, power will always
have some significance.
