Almost forty years ago I came to Canada for the second time from England. My first visit was to preach, my second was to bring Pauline and the kids to see the great land to which we would emigrate.
To leave friends and family behind in England and make a 3,500 mile journey was a major step. All the more so because we had our own home situated in a picturesque Lancashire village and a good salary from my job as a high school teacher.
What brought us?
Like Peter of old we stepped out of the tiny boat of our comfort zone, believing that God had called us to a wider adventure of living by faith.
We have had wet shoes many times since but it has been exhilarating learning how to walk on water with His hand to hold us up.
Is God calling you to make a step of faith today? Take it.
He will never call you forth unless He keeps you up!
