“GOD’S FACE IS SHINING UPON YOU, beaming out Peace that transcends understanding. You are surrounded by a sea of problems, but you are face to Face with GOD, your Peace. As long as you focus on GOD, you are safe. If you gaze too long at the myriad problems around you, you will sink under the weight of your burdens. When you start to sink, simply call out “Help me, Jesus!” and The LORD will lift you up. The closer you live to GOD, the safer you are. Circumstances around you are undulating, and there are treacherous-looking waves in the distance. Fix your eyes on GOD, the One who never changes. By the time those waves reach you, they will have shrunk to proportions of GOD’S design. The LORD is always beside you, helping you face today’s waves. The future is a phantom, seeking to spook you. Laugh at the future! Stay close to GOD.”
Scripture
And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. PHILIPPIANS 4 : 7
Then Peter got down out of the boat, walked on the water and came toward Jesus. But when he saw the wind, he was afraid and, beginning to sink, cried out, “Lord, save me!” MATTHEW 14 : 30
Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. HEBREWS 12 : 2
Prayer
Prayer: Lord even when I’m surrounded by a sea of problems may I meet you in the inner room of my heart, where you always are, and where there is peace that surpasses understanding. Where I can quickly hide away with you, if even for a minute, before returning to the world. In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.
