Mark, Chapter 6, Verse 49-50
49 But when they
saw him walking on the sea, they thought it was a ghost and cried out. 50 They had
all seen him and were terrified. But
at once he spoke with them, “Take courage, it is I, do not be afraid!”
Christ compels us to be
not afraid. Bravery, Nerve, Pluck, Valor, Daring, Audacity, Mettle and lastly resolution
are all synonyms for courage. Which word strikes your heart? For me it is resolution.
For I am determined not to invalidate Christ's sacrifice for me, I will not stop
trying to become the vision He has for me; I am resolute. No matter how many
times I fall I will get up; I will not stop. I will remember that the journey
before a man tries the measure of his heart long before it tests the strength
of his legs. I will remember that a man’s life is likening unto a lake with no
outlet: which has no life. Life giving water is always moving and
giving of itself. Man to be truly a creature of God must give of his essence
and run to the sound of battle for the Kingdom of God.
