The Perfect Storm

Read Mark 4:35-41

Reflection of Tommy:

Like the disciples, we too become panic when facing the storms of life. Though we have said we will trust in God, but there are times we still feel God is not doing anything to help our situation (v38). We can easily be paralyzed by our fear when we underestimate God’s power and His total control over our situation.

Instead of panicking, we should resist fear and putting our total trust and care in God. We should confess our need for Him and submitting all our concerns to His control. God who is faithful and sovereign will give us the right perspective over our situations. He will also supply us with the peace and strength to endure through those struggles.

Dear Father, thank You again for reminding me that You are in total control of every situation; that You will care and protect me if I rest all my trust and care into Your hands. Guide my ways and thoughts that I will be a bolder and more obedient follower of Christ. In Jesus’ Name I pray, Amen.
