Sometimes, the sea of life carries us in waves of worry, and leads us far away from the safety of solid ground. We face unfamiliar waters of uncertainty, and try our best to hold on tight.
It’s easy to lose sight of where we’re going, when we can’t see what’s ahead. Life becomes difficult when we have to work hard to stay afloat. But, God lovingly reminds us He is the One who carries us through the tides and tribulations of our lives.
When strong waves lead us far from the shores of calm, God lovingly lifts us to His mighty arms of hope and carefully pulls us to the safety of His love. He whispers, “I am here”, and reminds us we are held by His mighty strength.
God has the power to reach out and rescue. He uses circumstances of our lives to strengthen our faith and remind us He is in control of all things.
God recognizes the heart of those who long to be rescued. He shows us how to find His peace and lovingly reminds us to trust in Him.
When the sea of life carries us in waves of worry, God will lead us to the safety of His shore. He will hold us in His arms of strength and gently remind us why we must always hold on tight.
