"But when they saw Him walking on the sea, they supposed that it was a ghost, and cried out; for they all saw Him and were terrified. But immediately He spoke with them and said to them, 'Take courage; it is I, do not be afraid.'" -Mark 6:49-50 (NASB)
In life, we may have situations we would like to forget. We sometimes feel these times "haunting" us, even as we try to keep ourselves moving forward. When we see the "ghosts" of our past or feel haunted, we should check to be sure of what we are seeing!
The disciples at first thought they were seeing a ghost, but it turned out to be Jesus! In our lives, when we feel haunted, we should be sure that it isn't Jesus speaking to us. What we may perceive as "ghosts" in our lives could be Jesus reaching out to us, trying to teach us and guide us. We should stop, call out to Jesus in prayer, and listen for His reply!
Feeling "ghosts" from your past? Call out to Jesus and listen for His reply!
Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for being an active part of my life. Please continue to teach me and guide me. Help me to learn from the "ghosts" of my past and move forward showing Your love to others. In Jesus' name I pray, amen.
