Another Stormy Day

I typically try not to do anything more than necessary on a Monday. After Sunday services and a long week of ministry my body typically crashes. Today has been no exception. My wife helped me crawl out the bed after lying in bed close to 15 hours straight. Then, I immediately had to put some things in motion letting God lead my every step.

Regardless of the rest, I’m still not able to rush the recovery process. Since noon today my entire body has been buzzing off and on. I’m doing very good in my mind and in my heart. However, the battle with neuropathy all throughout my body usually catches fire on a Monday. My stimulator is in the process of settling my nerves, but God is in the process of settling my heart.

The truth is each day is different. You may have a tough day today, but a much better one tomorrow. You may feel like things are falling apart now, but later feel God is bringing things together. I’m so glad that no matter what I see, feel, or think God is working out His purpose in my life. I’m sure He is doing the same in your life. Don’t let the waves of life steal your joy. Instead, let the master of the wind and waves calm your heart as you wait out life’s storms.

“26“You of little faith,” Jesus replied, “why are you so afraid?” Then He got up and rebuked the winds and the sea, and it was perfectly calm. 27 The men were amazed and asked, “What kind of man is this? Even the winds and the sea obey Him!” Matthew 8:26-27
