"Master! Master!! We are perishing" the disciples cried out unto Jesus who was taking a nap while the strom was raging.
I believe they must have thought within themselves that, " how can a man sleep when there is a storm?"
Let's do a quick description of what a storm looks like.
Imagine a boat that was once sailing on a steady current suddenly becomes violent and the boat begins to fight to stay upright.
The sky above is dark and churning, clouds racing low and fast. Lightning may split the heavens in blinding flashes.
On the other hand the crew are bracing themselves, while the ocean appears vast, angry, and unstoppable.
Waves rise like towering walls of water, heaving the ship upward and then dropping it suddenly into deep troughs.
Okay, let's stop there but you must know that a storm as experienced by a sailing boat feels far more intense.
In the midst of all that chaos, our dear Lord Jesus Christ was seen taking a nap...can you imagine?
Now let's bring it home, we can all agree with me that at one point in our lives we've faced a situation that paints the same picture as a storm.
We've faced situations that has threatened our peace and shaken our faith. Situations that has made us question the existence of God.
For every season, there's a word from God. His word serves as an anchor.
Even if it feels like He is silent about what ever it is your going through. His presence alone speak a lot.
God's presence in our lives is PEACE. Remember He is the Prince of Peace. He has not brought you this far to disappoint you.
Keep holding onto Jesus.
Yours sincerely,
