He got into one of the boats, the one belonging to Simon, and asked him to put out a little from shore. Then he sat down and taught the people from the boat. Luke 5:3
I read this scripture today and saw it in a new way that I felt compelled to share with you. Jesus got into the boat and after this encounter, Simon Peter was never the same. He knew that Jesus was special but he had no idea how being with Jesus would change in his life forevermore.
Being close to Jesus brings us closer to the love and blessings of our Savior. After we experience the love and favor of Jesus first hand we have no choice but to believe His Word and promises to be true. Blessings can come in the form of physical healing, emotional healing, financial blessings, or even seeing your dreams and the desires of your heart happening right before your eyes.
Being close to Jesus is where I want to remain. He tells us that He will never leave us nor forsake us so why wouldn't we invite Him to jump into our boat in 2014?
