There Is Purpose In The Storms
Luke 8:22-25
Although the Sea of Galilee is only 5 miles wide and 13 miles long it has a history of terrible storms.
The disciples in obedience to his command hoisted the sail and begin the five mile trip across the lake.
Sometimes We Will Face Storms In Our Lives.
The once placid lake of our life becomes a storm tossed, angry, raging sea.
But no matter what storms come up in our life, we can call upon Jesus.
When We Are In A Storm We May Think That We Are Out of God’s Will.
You can find a storm and be right in the center of God’s will.
Without difficulties, without trials, without stresses and even failures, we would never grow to be what the Lord wants us to become.
When We Are In A Storm We May Think That God Doesn’t Care.
When we are in the midst of a crisis of one form or another and it seems that Jesus doesn’t care, He just does not seem to be interested or concerned with what we are going through.
When We Are In A Storm We May React In Fear Rather Than Faith.
In reality their problem was not the storm around them but the unbelief within them.
When We Are In A Storm We Need To Remember To Cry Out To The Father.
I am so glad I serve the God of the Universe who not only created everything that is, is not limited as to He can act by His own creation.
When In A Storm Faith Will Keep You From Being Afraid.
Jesus cares, not only cares, but acts and saves.
We Disappoint The Lord When We Give In To Fear.
Although their fear was natural, they had no excuse for their lack of faith.
