So many times when a storm is approaching you can quickly see who is faithful and who is not. In Matthew 8:24-26 And suddenly, behold, there arose a violent storm on the sea, so that the boat was being covered up by the waves; but He was sleeping.
25 And they went and awakened Him, saying, Lord, rescue and preserve us! We are perishing!
26 And He said to them, Why are you timid and afraid, O you of little faith? Then He got up and rebuked the winds and the sea, and there was a great and wonderful calm.
Storms happen for a reason. If you stand in fear of the storm then you have yet to realize the power of our Lord. Jesus didn’t just walk on water, he created it and the storms. In this passage in Matthew Jesus had the ability to stop the storm at any time but was testing the faith of the disciples.
This world right now is battling a storm but we must remain diligent and faithful. Jesus knows the outcome of the storm and doesn’t want you to be fearful but faithful. He wants you to continue to live your best life in a reverent and respectful way.
Be a disciple and follow Christ into the boat of the faithful and never fear another storm.
Be blessed in his name.
