You are such an awesome writer! This is great. Esp. the Grudge Weed – it reminds me that I need to forgive and drop a grudge on a friend who broke my heart. I still love her, but have been angry for too long. The way you worded it – makes sense to me. Thanks! (Now I need to go say I'm sorry…)

Awesome post that illustrates how God is not all about “curbside” (or in this case, wave-side) service. He has so much for us and has given us the tools to paddle. I'm reaffirming today to not be so lazy.

Cheers!

Hey Jeff, Great post again, was eagerly waiting for something to be penned from your end. I think we can get a lot from life if we understand how to take real pleasures and pains at different times without getting too desperate or too faint in our approach. Keep the insights rolling….

Awesome metaphor! Just two days ago, I went to Huntington Beach to watch the surfers. I've always wanted to learn…but have been afraid of sharks. After reading your post on surfing…I believe we are to watch where the waves come in and GO for it! Peace.

Jeff, as always, you have beautifully expressed what so many of us struggle to put into words…and you are so right. I know that I try so hard to get my life to a place where I think God will bless me–be obedient to His word, etc.–when really, He simply wants us to pursue HIM, not His blessing. And sometimes that pursuit takes work, but it's always worth it. Thanks for sharing your heart about this. Hope you are doing well!

Great points. I've been guilty of waiting for waves when the better ones were a little more effort to go get…great metaphor for the rest of everything we do in life!

Very inspirational! I feel as if these days I've been more encouraged to go out and paddle rather than just sit in one place and wait.

This is so true. We desperately need that cure.
