ELEPHANTS – Ever see elephants that weigh tons tied to a small wooden stake
with nothing but a rope that they could break without effort?
Their training starts out with a steel cable that they cannot break. After
a while, the cable is removed and the rope is put on. They never try to
break the rope because they are so used to not being able to break the
cable.
FISH – Put a piece of plexi-glass down the center of a fish aquarium. The
fish will not be able to go to the other side of the tank. After a while,
remove the glass. The fish will swim up to where the glass was, but never
attempt to swim farther. They remember bumping into the glass.
Sounds like a lot of Christians. They have been set free from bondage, but
because they are so used to it, they stay in a prison of their own making
when all they would have to do is take a couple of steps out of their
comfort zone to be truly free.
If you want to walk on the water, you’ve got to get out of the boat.
