Listen to this blog.
One day, Jesus and his disciples got into a boat, and he said, “Let's cross the lake.” They started out, and while they were sailing across, he went to sleep.
Suddenly a storm struck the lake, and the boat started sinking. They were in danger.
So they went to Jesus and woke him up, “Master, Master! We are about to drown!”
Jesus got up and ordered the wind and waves to stop. They obeyed, and everything was calm.
Then Jesus asked the disciples, “Don't you have any faith?”
But they were frightened and amazed. They said to each other, “Who is this? He can give orders to the wind and the waves, and they obey him!”
Luke 8:22-25
As you sail on the Sea of Life there will be storms that suddenly appear and threaten to destroy you and those you love.
The way to prepare for the storms is not to set your course so that you can certainly avoid all of them. The way to prepare is to make sure that Jesus is in your boat! If Jesus is in your boat you have nothing to fear even if He is asleep!
Don't spend your time studying the weather reports and charting a safe course for your life. Spend your time studying the Word of God and listening to the Holy Spirit direct your steps!
The disciples woke up Jesus and declared that they were all about to drown. But Jesus seems to have said that they could have addressed issue of the storm by faith!
So when a storm strikes your life first check to make sure Jesus is in your boat and then speak to the storm with the faith that God has given you!
If Jesus is with you either the storm will calm and the danger will pass or you will be taken to Heaven to live with Him forever. There is no bad ending to that story!
Check your life today and make sure there is room for Jesus in your boat!
