“Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.” – Jesus (Matthew 28:19-20)
I became aware of an important fact while riding the ZipLine at Camp Tejas.
Even with the helmet, the harness, the tether, the decision, and the knowledge that everything would be ok that first step was the hardest and though I really wanted to do it, the longer I stood there on the edge the harder it became. It is that way with any big decision – from the initial decision to give my life to Christ, to commit to one woman for life, entering the ministry, going to a job interview, or making a stand for what is right in the face of opposition, the biggest problem is not the decision or the desire but that first step.
Prayer: Father, help me to hear, to decide, AND to take that first step. Amen!
Sound Bite: The biggest problem is that first step, it’s all down hill from there.
