Safe HarborMany assume that the weather merely obey the laws of science. But mariners have always known that there is another power at work. "They cried to the Lord in their trouble, and he brought them out from their distress; he made the storm be still, and the waves of the sea were hushed."
Psalm 107:29
There are also metaphorical storms in our daily life. When those planes flew into the towers in Manhattan, many in the United States and Canada felt the impact of the storm. Right now in Pakistan Christians are facing a vicious storm of persecution. There are storms that can hit our place of work, and suddenly all is in confusion. Some of you are facing financial storms, and there seems no hope of paying the bills. There are also medical storms that engulf us and our family. All is going well, and then suddenly cancer or a heart attack hits us or our loved ones. Some of the toughest storms are when a family is being torn apart and is in danger of breaking up by the force of the wind.
We all need to know how to weather the storms of life. Christian faith is about much more than just surviving shipwreck. It's about believing, with confidence, that whatever and wherever our journey takes us, Jesus will always remain at the helm.
Be confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ.
