Be well balanced (temperate, sober of mind), be vigilant and cautious at all times; for that enemy of yours, the devil, roams around like a lion roaring in fierce hunger], seeking someone to seize upon and devour. (1 Peter 5:8-9, AMP)
This morning I took an amazing opportunity to go Stand Up Paddling; hence, the SUP.
Conditions were perfect: cool tropical breezes, water was smooth like glass, sun was rising up over the Koolau Mountain Range. Ohhh yeaaa, perfect conditions!
As I paddled, I realized, Stand Up Paddling is a lot like every day life.
We've got to stay balanced. If we get scared and look down (look at current circumstance), we lose our balance and fall. We have to look fix our eyes forward (to Jesus and what lies ahead), press onward to our prize! (Hebrews 12:1-2)
This is the deal my friends, the world has a million ways to eat our lunch every single day but as we stay balanced (prayer, staying in His Word, communion with Him) we smoothly paddle on!
What'SUP with you today?
