From Transformed → Transmuted: Walking on Water in a World Teaching Us to Swim — Episode 9

Christ does not teach us merely to swim — He commands us to walk.

Some days faith feels like fire.
Some days it feels like water.
And some days — like today, at the end of nine hours on my feet — it feels like both.

I came home hoarse, spent, and full.
Because when God lifts you, you can’t help but desire to lift others.

That’s what Low to Lifted is about.
Not performance.
Not perfection.
Not achievement for applause.

It is the rising of the human soul — from natural man → to holy man → to a son or daughter filled with Light.

Not just transformed.
Transmuted.
Lead into gold.
Fear into love.
Survival into sovereignty.

We are tent-makers, but tent-making is not our identity.

I said it plainly in the car months ago, and it still burns in me now:

Believers do greater works than Jesus.

He said it Himself.

Not because we are worthy —
but because He is.
Because He pours His power into those who hunger for more than comfort, more than self-improvement, more than treading water while calling it “faithfulness.”

Gurus teach swimming.
Christ teaches walking.

Your career funds your calling — but your calling defines your identity.

When you look sideways, you compare.
When you look inward, you analyze.
But when you look up, you rise.

This is where Saturday meets July.
Back then, I still called success swimming.
Now — I see differently.

Walking on water isn’t metaphor.
It’s inheritance.

As St. Francis said of the body:

“My brother Donkey — I ride him, I do not allow him to ride me.”

We walk.
We rise.
We become.

Not through grind or greatness —
Through yielding.

Transformation is change.
Transmutation is rebirth.

When your eye is single to His glory —
things that were hard become holy.

Weakness becomes strength.
Pain becomes power.
Effort becomes worship.

And the natural man becomes subject — not sovereign.

This is the Work.
Not self-improvement.
Sanctification.
Not optimization.
Consecration.
