Greetings,
Have you found that from time to time, you must remind yourself of how AWESOME our God truly is? If we focus on our problems rather than the “Problem-Solver,” we can forget how great He really is. Still, He eagerly waits for every opportunity to show us how incredible He is!
That’s what happened to Simon Peter. He did something no one in the history of mankind has ever done: he actually walked on water. And I don’t mean frozen water! Peter was walking from one storm-tossed whitecap to the next.
But as soon as he took his eyes off Jesus and began to look at the violent forces of nature, his mind began to question what was happening. That’s when he started to sink. And that’s what happens when we look at circumstances, rather than our God.
Father, help us to always acknowledge how AWESOME and FANTASTIC You are—and not just the severity of the situation. In this world, we will often feel like we are sinking. But when we look to You, everything changes. Lift us up above our problems and help us focus more on You than the challenges we face.
Today, I’m worshiping with Maryanne George and “Such an Awesome God.”
We love you and are praying for you. Be INSPIRED!
Pastor
