Storms and Turmoil and Jesus’s Help

Based on Matthew 14:24-32

Many of us face storms and turmoil daily, and frankly some of us are just worn out.  Perhaps we are trying like the disciples when they were in a storm, to keep the boat afloat, that process seems futile.  The disciples, when they saw Jesus, were desperate and called out to Him.  When Jesus entered the boat, the storm stopped. 

That account should really make us think.  How do we invite Jesus into our situation?  It sometimes takes us being very desperate before we will ask Jesus to help us, yet that is want He wants to do.  That desperation may help us to be humble enough to cry and ask for help. 

I would encourage all who find themselves in a storm, to ask Jesus to help them, and to consider asking for that help before it is needed. Consider this prayer, ‘Lord, I need your help and wisdom today in my circunstances.  In Jesus’ Name, Amen.’
