anyone who has gotten anywhere near a christian worship session in about the last year will have heard this worship song
(play this while reading if you like)
the lyrics go a little something like this
"you call me out upon the waters
the great unknown
where feet may fail
and there i find you in the mystery
in oceans deep"
the song basically talks about how those of us that are christians are called to put our self in a position of complete trust in god. we LOVE singing about it. actually doing it on the other hand is a whole different concept. its hard its scary and often you feel like your fumbling around in the dark
leaving the relative comfort of the only church i have ever know to start actually serving him amongst people that haven't known me since the age of 15 and are not likely to pick me up dust me off and say "its ok you can get it right next time" when i mess up. is terrifying
but yesterday this song came onto my ipod playlist when i was on the train home from uni. and i was suddenly extremely aware of what the lyrics where saying. ive been singing this to god for over a year.
I ASKED FOR THIS
what is the point in asking god to shake things up and for opportunities to step out of the boat (if you don't get that reference one off jesuses bff's genuinely walked on water check out matt 14:22) if your not going to take them
so im taking my opportunity
im going through the training process for guys and st thomas's hospital at the moment and by the 2ed december i am going to be working there full time as part of my university course.
the way this has come about means that it is so clearly God ordained that i would be foolish not to.
lots of love
