Good morning all,
The word of the day is “chronometer.” Today’s story is one of the first that I remember grasping pretty well. I was a young Christian and learning about the stories and parables of Jesus. When I came across this story I was pretty fascinated. I actually thought to myself, could the story even be true? As I continued on with my relationship with Jesus, I realized that there is pretty much nothing that he would not be able to handle. In today’s story proves just that.
“He got up, rebuked the wind and said to the waves, “Quiet! Be still!” Then the wind died down and it was completely calm.” ~Mark 4:39
My question is: where do you put your faith when you face difficult challenges and situations? I’m the kind of person that likes to take things on myself and not ask for any assistance. But, as we learned in today’s story, sometimes there is stuff that is out of your control. At which point, all you can really do is look to Jesus. Just like the people in the boat, who could not rely on the regular technology of the day – the chronometer – so must we put other things aside and realize that our true strength and answers come from Jesus.
Praying for you,
Mo
