He got up and gave orders to the wind, and he said to the lake, “Silence! Be still!” The wind settled down and there was a great calm. – Mark 4:39 (CEB)
Can you relate to the disciples on the lake? Have you ever faced a situation that was scary and you didn’t know if you could make it? The disciples were overcome with fear and thought they were going to die.
They also thought that Jesus didn’t care because He was sleeping in the back of their boat during this treacherous storm. Yet, in one call for help, Jesus got up and told the storm what to do. He said, “Silence! Be still! The wind actually obeyed Jesus.
You might be trying to handle the storm that’s going on in your life all on your own. You might also be wondering if Jesus is there and if He cares? Well, He does. Ask for His help and believe that He will stop what He is doing to help you.
Jesus wants to walk you through every storm you face. So don’t try to handle things in your own strength. Look to Jesus and lean on Him to be your strength.
