call me

Pastor Chris looked at Matthew 14:22-33 with us yesterday. The passage records the incident that Jesus walked on water. One of the points that particularly touches me is that out of all the disciples, Peter was the one who asked Jesus to let him also walk on water. Peter took the initiative and didn't wait passively to be "called." He saw Jesus doing something and we could almost hear him say, "Can I do that, too, Jesus?"

Often times we wait and see if God calls us to do something. Yet, Peter in the story took another approach and asked for the opportunity.

Call me, Jesus, call me.
