On Sunday, June 23, Nik Wallenda accomplished another risky endeavor. He walked on a high-wire suspended 1,500 feet above the Little Colorado River Gorge. Nik is one of the "Flying Wallendas." The walk was broadcast live on the Discovery Channel. It was risky, to say the least, with no net underneath him. However, in addition to getting updates on the wind situation, he was constantly in prayer. It was one of thankfulness for the beauty of what he saw as well as praying for calm wind.
His praying was done because he was in a risky situation. His life was on the line! This event made me think about how much we are willing to take RISKS for the sake of the kingdom of God. Maybe it is that we are willing to speak to someone about our faith and not knowing how we will be accepted. Maybe it is that we are willing to help someone in need - who is a stranger and not know how this individual will respond.
Here's the question I would like to leave with you in light of Nik's courageous event. Is what you are doing right now for God's kingdom enough of a risk that it calls for prayer?
