Preparedness. What do we generally prepare for? A wedding? A graduation? The birth of a baby? Birthday and anniversary celebrations? A long desired vacation? When asked this question, our minds naturally think of the big events in our lives because we do not typically take the time to prepare for all of the little events that come crowding in. Jesus took the time out to prepare. The incident seems trivial. In Mark 3:9, "Jesus instructed his disciples to bring around a boat and to have it ready in case he was crowded off the beach." But if Jesus could walk on water, he most certainly could have stood on the water if he was pushed to its edge. Except then we would not have been able to learn the scriptural truth about preparing a place for God in our lives. Our life is crowded by many "things" which can push us to the edge and possibly even drown us if we are pushed too far. So "just in case," prepare! Always be ready to call on your Lord's help no matter where you are standing in life. If the crowds of everyday concerns begin to drown you, allow the boat of His care to shield you. Being within His protection will give you the perspective to face your crowd of trials and the ability to address them. Remember, "God's way is perfect. All the Lord's promises prove true. He is a shield for all who look to him for protection."
