When evening came, his disciples went down to the sea, got into a boat, and started across the sea to Capernaum.
The sea became rough because a strong wind was blowing. they saw Jesus walking on the sea and coming near the boat, and they were frightened. But he said to them, “IT IS I, DO NOT BE AFRAID.” John 6:16-20
Experiencing Jesus calming life’s seas teaches us valuable lessons:
1. TRUST Jesus’ promise to never forsake us.
2. SURRENDER ourselves to Him
3. Exhibit COURAGE in dire circumstances.
4. Be PREPARED to stay the course.
Jesus told his disciples that the storms of life come and go.
“Jesus answered them, “When it is evening, you say, ‘It will be fair weather, for the sky is red.’ And in the morning, ‘It will be stormy today, for the sky is red and threatening.’ You know how to interpret the appearance of the sky, but you cannot interpret the signs of the times. Mt 16:2-3
When we are in the storms of life, Jesus is with us in the storm. He will walk on water to get to us!
Good morning as you thank Jesus today for His presence in our boat

“As a man thinketh in his heart, so is he
Pro 23:7
He never promised us that life would be free from trials. He promised that he would always be there with us no matter what we are going through. It is in our darkest hours that He draws us closer to him.
