Be Still and Find Love in the Quiet Times

In this modern world we live in today, our daily lives are in a constant state of hurrying about. We slice our time so thinly that even a small variation can throw our entire day into chaos. By doing this we think we are being productive, but are we really? What about our relationships with family, friends, and God? Relationships take time, and those who are in one with us need to see that they are more than just another small slice of our day. Let me ask one question before we begin… How much time each day do we allot to making our families really feel loved, and more importantly, how much do we dedicate to being quiet, and still, with God?

Jesus Take the Wheel, and Calm the Storms

There will be storms in our lives, and some of them will be quite fierce, but none rage so violently that Jesus can’t still them for us. Sometimes we think it is impossible for calm to return, and we cry out to Him in our distress just hoping that He will join us in its midst, and comfort us as we tremble, never dreaming that our predicament can be resolved, but in such times the miracles come. In the darkest hours, and when we are leaning into the strongest gales, this is when Jesus speaks, our troubles abate, and God is glorified. Have you ever screamed out His name “JESUS!” at the height of your fear, or from the depths of despair?
