Prayer of Sir Francis Drake

"Disturb us, Lord, when we are too well pleased with ourselves. When our dreams have come true because we dreamed too little. When we arrive safely because we have sailed too close to the shore. Disturb us, Lord ."

I think Sir Francis Drake had won-
derful insight on how complacent we
Christians are satisfied being. I'm
thankful for a prayer that makes me
realize how much more I need to
crucify my flesh and step out of my
comfort zone; to stop putting limits on God's power and just trust Him, unwaveringly, in all things and for all things. To God be all the Glory!
