Keep your courage up through faith in Jesus!

 Dear Christ followers, it is so easy today to lose courage.  But if we follow the example of Paul, we will find strength in Jesus.

In this chapter of Acts, Luke recounts how Paul and he were on the ship bound for Rome.  The winter weather was closing in around the Adriatic sea and the sea was tempestuous. 

Paul, however kept his faith in the Word of GOD.  And GOD told Paul that all on board would be saved if they ran aground.

Despite all the chaos going on around them as they threw goods overboard and eventually even their anchors, Paul was calm because he trusted in the Word of GOD.  And GOD had sent him a vision that they would all be saved.

We are never guaranteed that we will not be shipwrecked or that any other disaster will befall us.

What we are guaranteed is that we serve a GOD who is faithful to keep HIS promises.  And we will know HIS promises if we have a tight relationship with HIM.

The importance of prayer and daily reading of the Word of GOD cannot be emphasised enough.  We have to have a living, working relationship to GOD so that HE can guide us through the storms of life.

Prayer:  ABBA FATHER, as we navigate life's storms, I am so blessed to know YOU.  I am so blessed to have YOUR immense Grace.  FATHER, I humbly ask that YOU guide me in everything I do.  Not my will, but THY Will FATHER.  This I humbly pray in the Holy Name of Jesus Christ.  Amen.

Stay faithfully Jesus Blessed today!
