God desires to use each of us to love and reach out to our friends in such a way that they come to understand that there is someone in the boat who is willing and able to remove the force destroying their lives.

2. The fishermen had let their lines down into the water
when Dan noticed a school of dolphins had come
alongside and were swimming in the boat’s wake. He
immediately shouted for the lines to be drawn in. The
fisherman hurriedly reeled in their lines but it was too
late–one of the dolphins had been snared.

3. He dove deep, trying to get away from the hook, then
came to the surface to relieve the pain. Time and
again he dove, each time driving the hook deeper
into his mouth. After a long while the dolphin was
finally exhausted and simply swam next to the boat.

4. Dan moved to the side of the boat near the dolphin
and then experienced one of the most amazing
moments of his life The dolphin moved close to
the boat and then turned over on his side,
exposing the lodged hook protruding from his
mouth. Dan reached out and gently removed the
hook.

5. God desires to use each of us to love and reach
out to other youth in such a way that they come
to understand that there is “someone in the
boat” who is willing and able to remove the
force destroying their lives.

6. As we love them and tell them of the life Christ can
provide, the Holy Spirit will work with us, bringing
them to a place where they will allow God to “remove
the hook.” When youth hold out the hook (their hurts
and needs) we need to be ready to share with them
how God can change their lives.
