While I still have issues with heights I have to admit looking at that “high” diving board at present didn’t necessarily impress me all that much. Inside I shook my head in disbelief at the child who thought it was so big a deal that his very survival depended on praying each time.

In our personal lives sometimes Jesus brings us to the cross road. The place where we need to change course and walk in faith. I’m going through that right now and I can admit that it can be scary. I have been praying, “Please, see me through this.”

I’ve been thinking about that diving board and feeling that, twenty-five years from now, I’ll look back and shake my head at the man I am now and say, “why were you so worried over something as little as that?”
