up the mountain

Immediately Jesus made the disciples get into the boat
and go ahead of him to the other side, while he dispersed the crowds.
And after he sent the crowds away,
he went up the mountain by himself to pray.
When evening came, he was there alone. Meanwhile the boat,
already far from land, was taking a beating from the waves
because the wind was against it. As the night was ending,
Jesus came to them walking on the sea. When the disciples saw him
walking on the water they were terrified and said,
“It’s a ghost!” and cried out with fear.
But immediately Jesus spoke to them: “Have courage! It is I. Do not be afraid.”
Matthew 14:22-27 NET


Are you ready? Are you prepared for what I wish to do through you?
Empty yourself of expectation. Lower your ambition and
allow yourself to be filled with me. Let my love flow from you.
