Weakness

I was a lifeguard for a number of years. Great job, low pay, lots of girls. Each summer we pulled as many as 30 people who were drowning out of the water.

Let me tell you what’s scary if you’re a lifeguard. When someone who’s big and mean can’t swim and starts going down, that’s scary. If you try to save them, they’ll grab you and you’re both going to die. So what do you do? You wait, when they’re close to drowning, their last gasp, then you save them, only then are they weak enough to save.

Sometimes, I think God does that with me. I hate it, but it’s better than drowning.

I’m Steve Brown. You think about that.
