PUSH THROUGH THE STORM!

Ps 107:23-30

23 They that go down to the sea in ships, that do business in great waters;

24 These see the works of the Lord, and his wonders in the deep.

25 For he commandeth, and raiseth the stormy wind, which lifteth up the waves thereof. 26 They mount up to the heaven, they go down again to the depths: their soul is melted because of trouble.

27 They reel to and fro, and stagger like a drunken man, and are at their wits' end. 28 Then they cry unto the Lord in their trouble, and he bringeth them out of their distresses. 29 He maketh the storm a calm, so that the waves thereof are still. 30 Then are they glad because they be quiet; so he bringeth them unto their desired haven.

           Storms have often been used to illustrate a spiritual struggle. Climatologically, storms indicate seasonal changes. Spring is wrestling with winter and winter does not want to give up without a fight. Right is wrestling with wrong and wrong does not want to yield.

           I know many who are weathering a storm this morning. The rain of circumstances pelt their faces like daggers as they struggle to stay afloat. If they are wise, they will cry out to God because He is listening for that cry and stands ready to intervene.

Ps 34:17

17 The righteous cry, and the Lord heareth, and delivereth them out of all their troubles.

Dear Master of the storms, come quickly and help those who are buffeted by the winds of change and circumstances. Hear them speedily when they cry unto thee. AMEN
