My family recently visited a local seaport museum. There are several wooden ships, including a whaling ship, and exhibits about life at sea in the past and present. When walking on the ships, you can begin to imagine trying to navigate the seas, sailing without the modern conveniences of technology. There are bound to be rough waters while a ship is making a long journey and a need for strength, calm, and direction!
Our lives are a journey that will have calm and stormy times. When we are faced with the rough waters of life, we, too, need strength, calm, and direction. The good news is that we have a captain that can lead us. We need to be committed to God and trust in His direction and strength. No matter how high the waves, we can remain calm and know that God can and will do what is best for us. We can continue sailing the seas of life with confidence, knowing that God is in control!
Have confidence and trust in God to guide you through the calm and rough seas of life!
Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for guiding me through all of life's events. Help me to hear You and to trust in the direction that You lead me. In Jesus' name I pray, amen.
