"Feeling That Wave Action Again"
I have been feeling like we are in that boat
again. The waves are crashing over the sides and we are frantically
bailing out the water. I desperately seek the face of Jesus to come and
save us. With all the things going on around us it feels like our boat
is going to sink. Another crack in the mast and that will be tumbling
down on top of us. If we loose another slat on the boat we will surely
break apart. I just know Jesus is out there making His way to our
rescue. I just know that our Lord has not left us here to drown.
The rain begins to fall again and the lightning and thunder begin to rumble
and crash around us. The wind is swirling and the rain stings as it hits
my face. We all can feel it we can all hear it. We cry out
"LORD LORD Save us!", but we don't see Him and we don't hear Him.
We cry out again and again, but where is He? Then when we become weak
and think there is absolutely no hope there is a Light. A Light brighter
then the sun. Not just a light but the Light. Not a sun but the
Son walking on the water above the waves. We hear Him say:
"Peace!" and immediately the rain and the wind stop. The waves
calm and the water is a smooth as glass. He looks at us and says:
"Oh you of little faith" Then He tells us to get out of the
boat and walk with Him to shore. As we all look into His eyes and reach
out our hands for Him to take us out of the boat we are all walking on water
with Jesus. As the last person steps out of the boat the boat
immediately falls apart and sinks to the bottom. Jesus is there in time
of need and when we are at our weakest He will walk up and ask you to walk
with Him on the water or in the clouds or over the mountains. Seek first
the Kingdom of God.
