Leaning On Jesus When Storms Come

We all face times of uncertainty in our lives.  Life has it's challenges and it's ups and downs that is for sure.  It can be easy for us to feel discouraged when we face trials and challenges.  We know that in this world we will have trouble for that is what Jesus tells us in Scripture.  He also tells us to take heart because He has overcome the world and that should bring comfort to all of us who are trusting Him as our Lord and Savior.

Storms of life will come to all of us eventually.  The storm may come in the form of a job loss, finding ourselves in debt, loss of a loved one, a broken marriage, or an illness.  We know that if we hang around long enough that some kind of trouble will come to us.  We live in a fallen and sinful world.  This world is dying and it is growing darker day by day, but we must not lose heart for there is hope for you and I and for the entire world.

There is hope in the Lord Jesus Christ.  When we are worried, scared, stuck in a storm, and lost we can know that Jesus rescues.  When we find ourselves in a situation where we are tempted to worry we can know that the Lord Jesus is right by our side and we don't have to go through that situation alone.  

This world needs Jesus.  We believers in Jesus Christ need to spread the Gospel message throughout our communities and through out the world.  People are desperate to heart the truth.  They need to hear the truth about the true Living God and how they can be reconciled back to Him through a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.

People need to hear that there is a friend that sticks close than a brother and that is Jesus Christ.  We all feel lonely and at the end of our ropes at times, but it is in those times that we must draw closer to the Lord.  He cares for us and He loves us more than we can possibly imagine.

Lord,
Thank You for loving us so very greatly.
Help us to tell other people about You O Lord.
Come soon Lord Jesus.
In Jesus Name we pray,
Amen.
