The naming of storms by the weather organisations is interesting…it goes; boy, girl, boy, girl and lasts until the storm passes through and another weather storm begins, and a new name picked.
Do you have storms in your life? Think. Try this; after the name “Storm”, put your name and think how that relates to you.
Are you surrounded by a storm? Most of us are at sometime in our lives. It does not matter how big or how small the storm is, a storm is a storm, a problem is a problem if it relates to you.
When we are in our own storm the world can, and is, a very lonely place. We feel many emotions and we can start to lose control. Does that sound familiar to you? So what can, and should we do?
If you have Jesus in your life, you will never be alone. We will still hit storms in our lives but we will never be on our own.
In Matthew 8 v 23-27, when Jesus was sleeping, the disciples went and woke him up, shouting, “Lord, save us! We’re going to drown!” Jesus responded, “Why are you afraid? You have so little faith!”, then he got up and rebuked the wind and waves, and suddenly there was a great calm.
What does that all mean to us and our lives? This story of Jesus calming the storm should bring great encouragement and hope for anyone facing a storm in life. With Jesus everything is possible, so turn to God, give yourself to Christ and talk to Jesus.
Just pray, you may be surprised by what God can do for your and how you face storms in the future.
Psalm 62 v 2 says; “He alone is my rock and my salvation, my fortress where I will never be shaken.”
Remember Jesus next time you face a storm.
Peace be with you, Be Bold Be Strong,
