Good morning, brother!
Here´s what I thought about this:
"You may see it that way, brother, and it sounds "better" to see it another idealized way; although I have this other "example" life has shown me in The Bible:
Mat 14:27 But Jesus quickly spoke to them. He said, "Don't worry! It's me! Don't be afraid."
Mat 14:28 Peter said, "Lord, if that is really you, tell me to come to you on the water."
Mat 14:29 Jesus said, "Come, Peter." Then Peter left the boat and walked on the water to Jesus.
Mat 14:30 But while Peter was walking on the water, he saw the wind and the waves. He was afraid and began sinking into the water. He shouted, "Lord, save me!"
Mat 14:31 Then Jesus caught Peter with his hand. He said, "Your faith is small. Why did you doubt?"
Mat 14:32 After Peter and Jesus were in the boat, the wind stopped.
I wish I could be inside HIS boat with no wind blowing at me.
God and His commamds are the same, the Lord Jesus is the same as His invitation to walk by FAITH, no
matter if it is over solid ground or waters on any sea.
He just gave an order, some may walk, unaware of where they´re going and many would claim and ask for His helping hand,
(His saving hand) because I often walked by sight, looking at winds and waves.
Am I a piece of cork to float without swimming or to walk unconcerned?
Am I so light -as a feather- to be blown up with the breath of any wind of ideas or doctrine?
Scripture can be "spiritualized" and made that easy, but the truth is what GOD will show as truth."
I´m responsible for where I´m going. I cannot not see my self as a cork and the Gospel tells me I have to swim.
