Jesus’ disciples were alone in the middle of a churning sea.

For all their arduous rowing, they’d made little progress toward their destination.

Suddenly, in the midst of the darkness, wind, and waves,

they saw Jesus walking on the sea  and coming near the boat.

They were afraid until Jesus spoke to them—

Upon hearing these words, the disciples “were willing to take Him into their boat;

and immediately the boat was at the land to which they were going.”

This account from the Bible depicts the condition of human life.

Most of us would agree that problems often surround us;

problems with work, school, relationships, money, health.

Our troubles are like the churning of the sea.

Sometimes we feel life is nothing but a struggle.

We put on a brave front to the world, but inside we’re aching, worn out, and discouraged.

But the good news to the disciples that night is good news for us today.

Jesus still speaks these words: “It is I. Do not be afraid.”

Jesus Christ wants to come into your life, calm your fears, and bring you safely on your journey.

You simply need to take Him into your “boat,” into your life.

As you struggle to row against the churning sea of troubles in your life,

Jesus is here waiting for you invite Him in.

You can receive Him right now by opening your heart and praying this little prayer:

Thank You for coming as the Savior to this troubled world.

Lord Jesus, I believe into You. I receive You right now.

Fill me with peace and be with me on my life’s journey.
