‭‭Psalm‬ ‭40:7-8‬ ‭MSG‬‬ — So I answered, I’m coming. I read in your letter what you wrote about me, And I’m coming to the party you’re throwing for me. That’s when God’s Word entered my life, became part of my very being.

Deborah and I called our blog, Water Walkers because we want to have bold faith, step out of our boats, and walk on water with Jesus. Will we always make the choice to be like David in today’s featured verse and tell our Lord that we desire to do His will? Probably not because we are not perfect. As we know, life is short. When God presents us with an opportunity to step out, we can think of it as, “I’m coming to the party you’re throwing me.” 

Life may not always be a party. There are many times we’d rather stay in the comfort of our boat. I encourage us to use those times to sit with Jesus and seek His will. In seeking Him we will renew our strength for when we’re ready to step out again.

Let’s pray. Dear God, I surrender my will today. I seek to do Your will. Give me the discernment and peace I need to walk and sit with You. In Jesus’ name I pray, Amen.
