KEEP SWIMMING I prayed for you today and encourage you to move on. Sometimes you learn to swim by getting thrown into the deep end. When that happens, you discover that; a) if you let it, your fear will take you under. b) You can only tread water for so long. c) When you get to a certain point there is no turning back, you keep going. It’s fatal to stop or give up in the middle of the process. d) What God has put within you (the air in your lungs) will sustain you and keep you afloat if you learn to relax, trust God and keep swimming! If you are really serious about getting to the other side – you’ve got to take what’s in front of you and keep pushing it behind you. In other words, keep swimming! You might be crying while you are swimming, but keep swimming. Your heart may be about to come out of your chest, but keep swimming. Its when you feel backed into a corner with nowhere to go, that you’ve to reach down, take hold of what God put within you, and keep swimming. ‘The kingdom of God suffereth violence, and the violent take it by force’ (Matthew 11:12). Notice the word “Violence” – sometimes you have to rise up in faith and fight your way through, confident that God is on your side. The waters you’re in don’t determine your destiny; they can either carry you over or take you under. your faith has got to rise up and fight your fear. If you quit, God can do nothing more for you. So whether you’re doing the breaststroke, the backstroke, or some other kind of stroke nobody’s even heard of – KEEP SWIMMING! May the good Lord bless you mighty man of valor. On eagles wings for Christ
