Hope In The Storm

Hope in the Storm

To receive peace when your world is in chaos, call on Jesus for help.

Matthew 8:23-27

Many people in the world—maybe even you—are facing terrible storms in their life. Broken homes, joblessness, loneliness, loss, financial struggles, and world crises slash at the very fabric of hope. Some may even feel as though they’re lost, adrift at sea in a small boat during a hurricane. And many wonder, How on earth will we be able to reach the shore safely? 

The disciples faced this fear as well. While they were crossing the Sea of Galilee in their boat, the weather took a frightening turn. In desperation, they woke Jesus and cried, “Save us, Lord; we are perishing!” (Matt. 8:25). He rebuked them for their lack of faith and proceeded to calm the storm, showing Himself to be Lord over all creation. 

This story teaches us where we should turn when storms arise in our own life. Sometimes people interpret challenging events as an indication that God isn’t paying attention. That’s what the disciples thought until Christ calmed the turbulent waters. But even when the world seems out of control, remember that Jesus is in the boat with you, and He’s still Lord of all.

2 Samuel 22:3 KJV: The God of my rock; in him will I trust: he is my shield,

and the horn of my salvation, my high tower, and my refuge,

my Savior; thou savest me from violence.

Every morning tell the Lord "Thank You"! Make it a daily habit to tell the Lord Thank You. It will change your day, life, attitude, and outlook on your journey called "Life with Christ".
