There are two Bible stories that are often not connected but are strongly related.
The first is where Jesus calls Peter to step OUT in faith of a boat in the midst of a raging sea
to safety towards Him, and the second is where God pleads for people to step INTO a boat that would
save their lives from a coming storm.
BOTH involved a storm, and BOTH required STEPPING OUT IN FAITH.
The small boat is the life we live, the storm is the passage of life, and the
ark is the rescue from the storm once our small boat is overcome by the storm.
You see, as today’s title says, all of us must STEP AWAY of what we THINK
will save us and STEP TOWARDS what appears to be foolish, but in the end remains your
only true salvation. In both stories, lack of faith met their demise, but safety
comes to those that keep their eye looking for their deliverance and STEP OUT IN FAITH.
Friend, in both cases you have to make a choice!
Will you step out in faith FROM 'the boat'
you 'think' will save you TO the only true boat that
really can save you, and that is Jesus Christ?
When you do, your eternal deliverance is secure.
