SURFING “CATCHING THE WAVE OF GOD’S PRESENCE”


Main Focus: SURFING “CATCHING THE WAVE OF GOD’S PRESENCE”

“You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart”. Jeremiah 29:13

Today’s lesson is about surfing. Surfing can be a lot of fun, but it also takes a lot of effort and determination. A surfer has to wax his board, get into the water, even if it is cold, paddle out past the waves and then wait. That’s right. He just sits there on his board waiting for the waves to come. God’s presence is similar to that. We have to prepare our hearts and then put forth some effort praising Him, worshipping Him and then sometimes we just have to wait on the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit only comes when He is welcomed and invited. A good surfer will not go after every wave that comes his way. He waits for just the right wave.There are many things in life that can distract us from getting closer to God and can cause us to drift from Him. We must always make time to seek God and spend time in His presence.
