"It's not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credits belongs to the man who is actually in the arena... Who, at the best, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly. So that his place will never be with those cold timid soulds who know neither victory or defeat."
Theodore Roosevelt
Life is full of stom and surely we will encounter problems. But if we're willing to get out of the boat, two things will happen. First, if we fail - and we will fail sometimes - Jesus will be there to pick us up. We will not fail alone. We will find He is wholly adequate to save us. And second, every once in a while, we will walk on water!
I want to know Him more as never before. I choose to face my fears and step over the gunwales because the Master of the sea is waiting for me. :)
