What to do? Trust in God’s promise above and recall the time Jesus walked upon the waters and calmed the storms.




1 They that trust in the Lord shall be as mount Zion, which cannot be removed, but abideth for ever. Psalms 125:1 (KJV)

Sometimes life is like a violent storm at sea.  Your small boat is at the mercy of the wind, the crashing waves, the constant rising and falling with no end in sight.  One does not have to grow old in this world before one discovers that we have very little control over life’s negative events.  The wise prepare as much as possible to ward off the consequences of the storms of life.  Living on the coast of the Gulf of Mexico we’re aware that hurricanes are a reality and cannot afford to become complacent.  We can stock up on food, water, batteries, power generators, move to shelters and etc. to ride out the storm or we can evacuated to a safe distance from the coast.  One thing is certain, when the storm comes ashore we’ll have no control.  It is at these times of peril, uncertainty and distress that the wise rely and call upon God for deliverance.  The truly wise among us will not wait for the storms of life to come before crying out.

What to do? Trust in God’s promise above and recall the time Jesus walked upon the waters and calmed the storms.  He’ll do it for you too.

Read your Bible.

It has been said that in the heart of man is a God shaped void which can only be filled by the presence of God. Mankind has a hunger and thirst for the fulfillment only God can bring but sadly we seek to feed the hunger and quench the thirst with worldly things. God knows what we have need of and has written us a guide to discover how to have fullness of joy and peace. Read your Bible. 4 And these things we write to you that your joy may be full.  1 John 1:4 (NKJV)

Are you “on schedule” with God or are you running late? If not; today is a good time to start catching up!

1 Hearken to me, ye that follow after righteousness, ye that seek the Lord: look unto the rock whence ye are hewn, and to the hole of the pit whence ye are digged. 2 Look unto Abraham your father, and unto Sarah that bare you: for I called him alone, and blessed him, and increased him.   Isaiah 51:1-2 (KJV) The art or process of mapping a journey overland, sea, air or space requires the use of fixed or known reference points along the route.   It naturally begins with a starting points and the identification of a destination.   When covering large distances “way points” are established to (1) measure distance traveled and for (2) course correction to ensure one is still on the planned route.   Way points are also places where one can restock supplies, rest and refit for the journey.   The Hebrews of Isaiah’s time had a “history” with God and here He calls them for a stroll down memory lane.   Modern day Believers also have a “history” with ...

How much have you progressed in your journey with God?

1 Hearken to me, ye that follow after righteousness, ye that seek the Lord: look unto the rock whence ye are hewn, and to the hole of the pit whence ye are digged. 2 Look unto Abraham your father, and unto Sarah that bare you: for I called him alone, and blessed him, and increased him.   Isaiah 51:1-2 (KJV) The art or process of mapping a journey overland, sea, air or space requires the use of fixed or known reference points along the route.   It naturally begins with a starting points and the identification of a destination.   When covering large distances “way points” are established to (1) measure distance traveled and for (2) course correction to ensure one is still on the planned route.   Way points are also places where one can restock supplies, rest and refit for the journey.   The Hebrews of Isaiah’s time had a “history” with God and here He calls them for a stroll down memory lane.   Modern day Believers also have a “history” with ...
