Solid Footings
2009 was a year where life went off the rails. Job loss has hit many people hard and it hit me hard. During this time in the summer we met weekly with a group of people and studied the amazing walk Jesus took on the water while inviting Peter to join Him. I am so thankful for this group of people, their prayers, their support, and what I learned through this study and this experience. Keeping my eyes on Jesus gave me a solid footing to stand on, and although I sank many times He pulled me out. I have experienced the promises of God personally. Even though I was only off work for 3 months and thankfully I am back to work, I still need to focus on Him and not on the “rails” I perceive my life to be on. I know that whatever 2010 brings my way, no matter how crazy the waves are, and how big the storm might be, Jesus will be my focus, my hope, and the rock on which I stand. He will hold my hand (and continue to pull me out), as we walk the water together.
