PEACE BE STILL

 Thank You, Lord, for Your unfailing love. I praise You for Your fresh mercies that are new to us every morning. No matter what has come our way, I know beyond a doubt that You are right there with us; never leaving nor forsaking us. You whisper Sweet Peace as Your Love embellishes our very being. When the storms of life seem to overwhelm us, You are there to pick us back up and cradle us in Your comforting arms until our storm has passed. Even during the fiercest storms in our life You remain forever faithful as our Protector and our good good Father!

The words of the psalmist David are filled with confidence and hope as he prophetically wrote, “He stilled the storm to a whisper; the waves of the sea were hushed”(Psalm 107:29) and we see it fulfilled as Jesus calms the sea in Matthew 8:23-27. Think about that for a moment; "Jesus stills the storm to a whisper and the waves of the sea were hushed... just by speaking "Peace, Be Still!" Can you fathom that very moment?... Jesus calming the storm.... Such Peace, Such Calm, Such Amazement in the disciples eyes; WOW! That had to be awesome to witness first hand; Jesus Speaks...And the storm is Hushed!
Many of us have been experiencing life's storms that have tried to pull us under as tidal waves continued to bash upon us mentally and physically, until we cried out to God......And then we saw His Hand move or His voice hush the storm in a miraculous move of divine interventions! God was right there to deliver and hold us up with His victorious and righteous right hand(Isaiah 41:10). God, in all His glory, is there with us through stormy weather speaking peace to our troubled soul.The calmness of His peace overshadows doubt and fear and instills peace like nothing we could ever imagine possible ... "Peace, Be Still" and all is calm when the Master speaks!
Don't hesitate to call upon Him, anytime-anywhere, in any given situation, because It is His desire to Father us and protect us as only He does best. The storms of life will surely attempt to surround us, but we have His assurance that when they rise up around us, He will be there to carry us through! So as storms roll in and its tides begin pulling you under, just reach up and grab hold of His hand, dear friend! HOLD ON to God's unchanging hand; He won't let go! Trust God, Rest in Him, and Watch as He calms your storm and speaks forth His Peace. Enjoy a wonderfully blessed day, dear friend. God loves you and so do I~~~
