The 4 Living Creatures Series Part 2: The OxNäide

Capacity

The ox is so monumental to the farmer because of his level of strength and capacity. He is able to handle certain levels of toil and burdens that go beyond human strength. There are situations in life that feel so overwhelming. You look at it, and you wonder how you will make it through. One step at a time, you endure the hardship, and before you know it, you realize that you have just plowed through something that seems insurmountable. At times, it seems like the situation will break us, but God has instilled in us a level of strength and capacity that goes beyond what we even believe that we are capable of doing. The Lord gives us the strength to do the unthinkable, and by Christ living in us, nothing is impossible.
