- The story’s application
- Consider what the boat represents

- Consider what the boat represents
- Comfort Zone
- He sits alone absorbed in his sofa
- His face a sickly glow from the TV screen
- His mind getting soft, his will nearly broken
- His whites turning red and his irises green
- Refrain
- But the call it comes again
- He appears from the mist and says
- “Come, take a walk on the water!”
- Take a leap of faith surrender control
- Jesus is callin’ all his Sons and his daughters
- Take that step out of the boat
- Step out of your comfort zone
- He’d always hoped he’d find his life purpose
- Then he chickened out when his chance came around
- Opportunities fade into the haze of comfort
- When the Lord says jump, he keeps his feet on the ground
- Refrain
