This week during a bible study we were studying about
creation and how God created, and spoke all things into existence. After God had created all things he created
man and God said,
“Genesis 1:27So God created man
in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created
he them.
28And God blessed them,
I began to wonder if and fact God had created ALL men and
women in his image, why was there such a disparity in the way people live in
Haiti, the poorest country in the world and the United States, with our many
and great blessings. I came to the
conclusion that God uses men and women like us to be his hands and his feet to
go to Haiti.
We are to support the work that God is doing through
organizations like Healing Haiti, and Feed My Starving Children FMSC already in
Haiti. I have realized that I am
stepping “out of the boat” as Christ is calling us to “walk on the water,” as
Peter was called to do. I know that to
swing his leg out of the pitching boat in the midst of a storm, to stand on the
water, and to take that first step was the hardest part. But Christ called Peter and he calls each of
us in different ways to obedience of our Lord.
I am ready to take that step tomorrow night in faith and
obedience to my Savior. He is calling me
to empty myself of all fears, preconceptions, and pride and to be filled with
His Holy Spirit. Please God help me to
remove all obstacles that blur or obstruct your voice.
