A year ago, I was sitting on a chair in the front of a trout fishing boat casting my line about, fruitlessly. I realized my good friend Dale in the back of the boat, was just relaxing in his chair, looking around.
I said, "Dale, why aren't you fishing?" He replied, "The scenery is incredible, beautiful, with the surrounding hills, trees of the forest, the blooming flowers along the rippling river. I'm just resting in God's glory!"
You know, Dale's quiet words of worship and enjoyment really encouraged my own heart! One of the benefits of good friendship is the joy of encouraging one another.
In this podcast, Lee and I talk with another such friend, Steve Ebling, as we talk about encouragement and the marvelous ministry he is a part of, Altar Fly Fishing. https://altarflyfishing.org
Imagine spending a few days sharing the wonders of God's creation and the soul food of scripture with a few other people! It's utterly renewing! No matter the nature of the stream of life you are floating in now, your best friend, the Lord who loves you, will encourage your heart as you lean on him!
