My First Book:
"What Am I Thinking?"
Don’t Just Sit There – Go For It!
Posted in: Uncategorized by DannyTice on December 7, 2009
I really believe in being proactive in life. Recently I preached on Peter getting out of the boat (his personal comfort zone) and walking on the water. I am intrigued by this part of the story found in Matthew 14 – Jesus didn’t ask Peter to get out of the boat but Peter brought the idea up. He initiated the whole idea of trying to walk on the water – not Jesus. I said in the message we shouldn’t always be waiting for God to nudge us to do stuff we should play “Father may I” and introduce our cool ideas to God and say Lord can I do this? God rewards and smiles at people who are willing to try extraordinary things in this world.

The really interesting thing in this story was peter started to sink. He took his eyes off of Jesus (the goal) and was distracted by the waves and the storm. Jesus reached out and took his hand and it was ok. Don’t take your focus off of Jesus and your goal. Don’t let the distractions of the storm make you loose what you are going after. It was a good sermon, this weeks message was a great one.
