Crikey!
Crikey, it's me again!
Yesterday, I, like most of the world was absolutely shocked at the death of the great Australian conservationist and TV star Steve Irwin - The 'Crocodile Man'. What I cannot really believe is that this amazing guy works every day, face to face with huge crocodiles, venomous snakes, deadly comodo dragons ... as well as his fare share of lions & tigers.
And yet, what gets him in the end? A stingray. Stingray. A fish. A creature that has hardly ever kills anyone and is quite insignificant compared to the ferocious animals I have mentioned.
Quite a lesson for us. We can be facing huge 'giants' in our lives and even be successful in overcoming them. We can often overcome cancer, or unemployment, or the death of someone we love ... but sometimes the little stingray are the things that bring us down.
Remember David. It wasn't a lion that finished him off. The bear was no problem.. Even the giant could not stand in the presence of little David with his huge God.
It was a woman bathing. No giants around ... but that one glimpse brought pain, heartache and disaster into David's life, as well as his kids' and grandkids'' lives.
So today, keep fighting the giants in front of you, but keep your eyes on the small stingrays around you. But most of all, keep your eyes fixed on Jesus!
G'day ....
