Just like the disciples, I know Jesus. I’ve witnessed His works and seen some mighty acts of God. And, like Simon, I fall asleep all too easily. I get caught up in the busy world of children, housework, meals, bill paying and church… my life becomes full of these necessary things and I stop being as focussed on the still, quiet voice of God. I take comfort in the lives of the disciples… the ones who fell asleep instead of watching and praying. For it was through their failure that God taught them many valuable lessons and revealed Himself to them. And so it is with me. It is within my failures, my weaknesses that I see more of Him and His awesome power and righteousness.
