One of my Twitter followers tweeted something that really struck a chord with me… He was making application of the story in Acts where the apostle Paul was onboard a ship that was sure to be wrecked by a great storm.

By inspiration of the Holy Spirit, Paul warned the men that though the storm was too much to endure, they would surely die if they jumped ship! The last words of the tweet were “Stay on bored with the Lord!"

That’s some pretty sound advice when you’re talking about the God who can still any storm. The funny thing is that he misspelled the word board. What should have been spelled b-o-a-r-d was spelled b-o-r-e-d. That got me thinking…

Could it be that the reason the Christian life doesn’t seem as EPIC as it was for the biblical characters is due to our becoming bored with the Lord?

If this question resonates with you, then here’s what to do…

Tell Jesus, “Lord, I think I’ve been bored with you. But I know its not because you’re boring, but because I’ve lost my mooring. It was me who drifted away! Rescue me from this snare of the enemy!"
