Let Jesus calm the winds of struggles we are in.
Mark 6: 47-51 . When evening came, the boat was in the middle of the lake, and he was alone on land. He saw the disciples straining at the oars, because the wind was against them. About the fourth watch of the night he went out to them, walking on the lake. He was about to pass by them, but when they saw him walking on the lake, they thought he was a ghost. They cried out, because they all saw him and were terrified.
Immediately he spoke to them and said, “Take courage ! it is I. Don’t be afraid.” Then he climbed into the boat with them and the wind died down.
The above scripture verses can be compared to the challenges we go through on a daily basis. It could be challenges related to our health, finance, career, relationships or whatever. When we are straining with the daily struggles of our lives, our Heavenly father who is full of compassion and love walks into it to help us. We need to invite him to our lives so that the “wind which is against us” will calm down, letting us move forward with a purposeful life. Let Jesus the author and perfector of our faith (Hebrews 12: 2) be our redeemer because he will write the most amazing stories for each one of us if we put our complete trust in him and believe in him.
Have a look at the videos below to learn how Jesus has come in search of the lost, and redeemed them to be on the road to eternal life.
Lord Jesus, forgive me and cleanse me from all my sins. I believe you rose from the dead and receive you as my Lord and saviour.
