storms blow in these days
and not just in the atmosphere
at homeat work
at church
in our health
in our cars
in our finances
and I hear Jesus say
Why are you so afraid? Do you still have no faith?”
after all He's done for me
why do I question the storm
its outcomes
its scariness
He got up, rebuked the wind and said to the waves, “Quiet! Be still!” Then the wind died down and it was completely calm. He said to his disciples, “Why are you so afraid? Do you still have no faith?”
Mark 4:39-40
We are so much like the children of Israel. We have to be reminded over and over of His faithfulness!
ReplyDeleteThose storms do blow but by the grace of God we shall stand for his arms are around us.
ReplyDeleteWonderful post.
ReplyDeleteI love this one, Karrie! It reminds me of the song "Rain" by Patty Griffin. Have you heard it? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pFbjE7NFmUI

no need to bail by ourselves, right?
ReplyDeleteOh, I love patty griffin, too! It's hard to step out of the boat when the waves are crashing, but this is such a good reminder that we are reaching out to HIS hand!
