Morning Coffee - Launch out into the deep.

 “Now when he had left speaking, he said unto Simon, Launch out into the deep, and let down your nets for a draught.”    Luke 5:4

How deep He does not say. The depth into which we launch will depend upon how perfectly we have given up the shore, and the greatness of our need, and the apprehension of our possibilities. The fish were to be found in the deep, not in the shallow water. So with us; our needs are to be met in the deep things of God.

Streams in the Desert
Mrs. Chas. E. Cowman

Time to pour a second cup and consider the depth of where I stand, knowing full well it’s not nearly deep enough.
