BLESSINGS TO THOSE HOLDING ON IN THE STORM,
When storms come we can be gripped with fear. It is even more frightening when we see the waves swell and we see just how small we are as our boat is tossed to and fro and water starts coming in. Survival is bursting IN THE BRAIN,
and we wonder just how much time we have before we go under.
On that day, when evening had come, he said to them, “Let us go across to the other side.” And leaving the crowd, they took him with them in the boat, just as he was. And other boats were with him. And a great windstorm arose, and the waves were breaking into the boat, so that the boat was already filling. But he was in the stern, asleep on the cushion. And they woke him and said to him, “Teacher, do you not care that we are perishing?” And he awoke and rebuked the wind and said to the sea, “Peace! Be still!” And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm. He said to them, “Why are you so afraid? Have you still no faith?”
Mark 4:35-40 English Standard Version 2016 (ESV)
We should remember that Yeshua ( Jesus) is faithful always to take us to the other side…
