Peace Be Still....

Good Morning Christian Peeps! Oliver Wendell Holmes said it best: "Greatness is not in where we stand, but in what direction we are moving. We must sail sometimes with the wind and sometimes against it - but sail we must, and not drift, nor lie at anchor." When a boat sets out to sea, the crew have no way of knowing what lies ahead. They can only hope for safe and calm travels. What they can do is prepare their ship to withstand any and all storms. They will need to stock up on water, food and other supplies to last through whatever may come their way. Our lives are the same. We do not know what storms tomorrow will bring, but we can prepare to face whatever they are. Our greatest asset is Jesus! His love protects us and covers us. I'm reminded of the story when a storm blew up on the disciples and the Lord stepped out and just said "Peace be still". Can we let him do that for us today? In the midst of our storm, can't we just let Jesus say "Peace be still"? Be Blessed!
