But as for me, I will look to the Lord. Micah 7:7(a)

 

Several years ago while visiting certain of the Northern European countries, it was necessary for me to cross the North Sea in a large ocean liner. During the first days of voyage we sped along calm seas, but suddenly were overtaken by a frightening tempest. The waves were like great mountains, and we were lifted up to their heights.

The great ship rocked and rolled, creaked and groaned. The faces of the passengers were blanched white with fear. Even the little ones clung to their mothers, sensing the nearness of danger... the very air was surcharged by an ominous foreboding of impending destruction.

 
When it seemed that surely the ship had endured to the very limit, a man appeared on the scene. There was no trace of anxiety or concern on his face. His presence radiated calmness, rest and peace. With a voice full of gentleness he assured us "all is well" and our fears disappeared.

 
Who was that man? The Captain. He had taken that vessel through many a long voyage, plowed rough seas, met terrible storms, and had always arrived safely in to port...
What we have to fear?... Is not our Captain on board? With Christ in the vessel we smile at the  storm.
Yes, one whose faith is continually stimulated by the upward look gives no ground to the attempted encroachment of despair.
No matter how great the trouble or how dark the outlook, a quick lifting  of the heart to God in a moment of actual faith in Him completely alter any situation and turn the darkness of midnight in to glorious sunrise.. ...

Have you not known? Have you not heard? The everlasting God, the Lord, The Creator of the ends of the earth, Neither faints nor is weary. His understanding is unsearchable.Isaiah 40:28

Hide me now

Under Your wings

Cover me
Within Your mighty hand

When the oceans rise and thunders roar
I will soar with You above the storm
Father, You are King over the flood
I will be still and know You are God

Find rest
Find rest, my soul
In Christ alone
Know His power
In quietness and trust
