Step Out Of The Boat

Romans 1:17

17 For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith

Matthew 14:29

29 And he said, Come. And when Peter was come down out of the ship, he walked on the water, to go to Jesus.

My mother used to sing a song that said “by faith step out of the boat”. That one line was stuck in my head all day. I thought of how safe the boat is. How we can set in the boat and everything will be okay. However, that is all we will do is set there. It is when we put our faith to work that things happen. It is when we decide it is time to get out of the boat and take the steps God is bidding us to take. I know the waves look scary. I know the what if questions are bouncing in your head. It is a big step. However, when you take it Jesus is there to guide you to the next step and then all the steps that come next. You will be able to have faith in the healing of your family. You will have faith that bills will be paid. You will even have faith that God is watching over you. You can stay in the boat and be safe, or you can step out and see that faith in God will protect and guide you.
