You will be secure, because there is hope; you will look about you and take your rest in safety. Job 11: 18 NIV

“Troubles are often the tools by which God fashions us for better things.” As we remain faithful, He gives us STRENGTH when we’re tossed by wind and the storms. He opens our hearts to witness His greatness and find courage in the comfort of peace.   

It’s hard to deal with pressures in life when trials lead us away from calm. But the Bible has advice when we’re worried and afraid. “Rejoice in hope, be patient in tribulation, be constant in prayer.” Romans 12:12. It helps remember we won’t have to battle burdens forever! 1 Peter 1:6-7 says, “So be truly glad. There is wonderful joy ahead, even though you must endure many trials for a little while.

When life tries to knock us down, God anchors us in His shelter. He helps us find courage when we’re cradled in care. He allows us to remember who handles our days and helps us stay grounded in His presence. 

He opens our hearts for Jesus. When the wind blows with furry, He helps us bravely hold on. When faith is tested by the storms, He reminds us who loves us through EVERY situation.   

When we’re pushed to the limit, we must remember who fights our battles! God will hear our prayers for mercy. He will bring HOPE for those who long to be rescued. He will help us find PEACE even on the darkest days of doubt. He is GOD and HE loves us! 

The Lord himself will fight for you. Just stay calm.” Exodus 14:14 NLT

Dear God, thank you for PEACE that sets the stage for CALM. Help us find STRENGTH in Your presence. Remind us to be faithful and TRUST. Forgive us when fear creates doubt. When the wind blows with furry help us remember who calms the storms. We’re so grateful for the power of Your authority. It gives us HOPE. Thank you for holding us close. We will ALWAYS find refuge in YOU. Thank you for Your mercy, grace and love. It covers us with everything we need to be restored. Amen  

But when you ask Him, be sure that your faith is in God alone. Do not waver, for a person with divided loyalty is as unsettled as a wave of the sea that is blown and tossed by the wind. James 1:6 NLT

“Be still, and know that I am God! I will be honored by every nation. I will be honored throughout the world.” Psalm 46:10 NLT
