📖 “"On that same day [when] evening had come, He said to them, Let us go over to the other side [of the lake]. And leaving the throng, they took Him with them, [just] as He was, in the boat [in which He was sitting]. And other boats were with Him. And a furious storm of wind [of hurricane proportions] arose, and the waves kept beating into the boat, so that it was already becoming filled. But He [Himself] was in the stern [of the boat], asleep on the [leather] cushion; and they awoke Him and said to Him, Master, do You not care that we are perishing? And He arose and rebuked the wind and said to the sea, Hush now! Be still (muzzled)! And the wind ceased (sank to rest as if exhausted by its beating) and there was [immediately] a great calm (a perfect peacefulness). He said to them, Why are you so timid and fearful? How is it that you have no faith (no firmly relying trust)? And they were filled with great awe and feared exceedingly and said one to another, Who then is this, that even wind and sea obey Him?" -Mark 4:35-41 Amplified Bible Classic Edition
No matter what storm is raging in our lives, we can rest when we know that Jesus in our boat. We don’t have to worry about going under when He is with us. Storms will come. Hard times may come, but regardless of what may come our way, we will get to the other side! We will outlast the storm. The wind will cease eventually. The rain will stop. All we have to do is walk by faith and not by sight. If we will stand on the Word of God, we can weather any storm. Jesus would not allow the disciples to go under, and when we put our faith and trust in Him, He won’t allow us to either. We will get to where God wants us to be: a place of victory.
