Yesterday, I had the pleasure of spending the afternoon fishing with my daddy. What a great day! The excitement of reeling in fish after fish... wow! I cheered, laughed, squealed, prayed, and almost cried a few times with joy as I landed one after another.
Christ wants us to get that excited about bringing people to Him!! We should be casting our lines and trying our best to reel them into this boat with us! We should be tired afterwards because of the effort we're putting into it, but still can't wait for the next opportunity to do it again!
The fish don't just jump into the boat on their own. We have to cast the bait, we have to struggle to bring them closer, we can't give up, we have to pray the line holds tight and that they don't get tangled on a limb, we have to reach into the water and risk getting finned to help them into the boat.
Fishing isn't always easy... but it's worth every minute!
