I recently had a video shoot for my latest single. This was not something that I'm used to and I was definitely out of my comfort zone but I'm so glad I did it. I'm so glad I didn't listen to those voices- you know the ones- doubt, fear, insecurity..- all those ones that like to gang up on a person. I guess when I think about it, this whole journey I've embarked on of releasing my own music has been me stepping out.
How about you? Is there something you really want to do but you're holding back?
In Matthew 14:22-33 we can read the story of Peter walking on the water. Something that would have been deemed impossible, yet he did it. When he focused with his eyes ahead and was confident, he was doing it- he was really walking on water. But when he let doubt in and lost focus; when he let his eyes drift away from Jesus and rather to the waves around him, he started to sink.
Peter still reached his destination- he knew who to call on for help and he made it to the boat. How about us? We might struggle to take that first step and then it might be smooth sailing for a while and we might struggle a bit again but it's ok. If we keep our eyes fixed on where we are heading we can make it.
So, anyone up for a walk?
Stay blessed x
