He calms the storm so that its waves are still.
--Psalm 107:29
I've seen Jesus work firsthand in my life and in the lives of others--in sickness, in death, in divorce, and in each tempest life throws our way. I've often wondered how people make it without a living God who loves them. Our storms come into our lives to refine and test us. They are for a season even though they feel as if they will never end.
Remember Peter? God told him to walk on water and come to him while rolling waves raged all around them. Peter did just that for a short moment, but then he took his eyes off of Jesus. Remember what happened next? Peter began to sink. Keep your eyes on Christ today, and take him by his hand. He will lead you through the storm and safely to shore.
God is preparing you today for greater things to come. He never promised us easy, but he does promise to walk with us each step of the way. This old cypress tree has weathered many hurricanes in its life, but here it's enjoying a gorgeous sunset in calm waters. It's still standing because its roots are anchored deep into the soil. I pray you are rooted deep in Christ today so you, too, can weather the storms to come.
