WORD OF GOD - 6:16-21

JOHN 6:16-21

When evening came, his disciples went down to the lake, got into a boat, and started across the lake to Capernaum. It was now dark, and Jesus had not yet come to them. The lake became rough because a strong wind was blowing. When they had rowed about three or four miles, they saw Jesus walking on the lake and coming near the boat, and they were terrified. But he said to them, ‘It is I; do not be afraid.’ Then they wanted to take him into the boat, and immediately the boat reached the land towards which they were going.

---- mine,

Now that you are in the evening of your life there will be dark moments when you will find yourself alone even when you are surrounded by people because you will not experience My Presence. When life gets particularly tempestuous, the winds get frightening, the boat of your life is filling up with water as it is tossed about by the wind and you fear you will drown - fear not! I will come to you for I have redeemed you, saved you, justified you - you are mine. The waters will not cover you, the winds will not destroy you, you will not be overcome nor will you perish for I AM with you. All will be well. The storms will pass and the gentle wind of the Holy Spirit will bring you to safe harbor and home.
