You know

You know, the outfitter makes the difference -- on the river ... in your life. And if you belong to Jesus, you have no one less than the God of the universe as your Outfitter! He knows what's ahead on the river you're navigating. He knows everything you'll need to make it, and He's making sure you have what you need.

Isn't that awesome? "Everything good for doing His will." If God can bring Jesus back from the dead, if Jesus, the great Shepherd, is looking after you - is there any need He won't take care of? Any need He can't take care of?

Now, you may be stuck on the shore, too scared to get into the raft and go where Jesus wants to take you. You're afraid you won't be able to handle the turbulence ahead. You're afraid to go where you've never gone before. You're afraid to move ahead because you're not sure you'll have what you need. But did Psalm 23:1 suddenly get erased from your Bible? "The Lord is my Shepherd; I shall not want!" The journey ahead, the white water ahead isn't about you and what you can do anyway. It's about your Divine Outfitter, and Navigator, and Provider, and Protector, and Guide. It's not about you doing stuff for God. It's about God doing stuff through you! So what are you waiting for? What are you worrying for? Your job is pretty simple: get out of your Comfort Zone, stay pure and show up. The rest is up to Jesus.
