GOD??™S WEATHER
???And
he saith unto them, Why are ye fearful, O ye of little
faith?? Then he arose, and rebuked the winds and the sea;
and there was a great calm.? But the men marveled, saying,
What manner of man is this, that even the winds and the sea
obey him!???
Matthew 8: 26,27
King James Version
Hurricane season starts tomorrow
here in Florida where I live and probably where a lot of you
who read this live.? Last year we were hit very hard by a
hurricane and it caused a lot of destruction.? The place
where my cousin lives was hit by two hurricanes and that was
unusual, I am told.? Hurricanes can cause property damage,
trailers to be overturned, roofs to be blown off, and a lot
of other devastation.
There are hurricanes that are a lot
more harmful.? We have hurricanes of divorce, drugs,
alcohol, abuse of children, spouses, the elderly, and broken
homes.? While the hurricanes on land can cause destruction,
eventually the homes and property will hopefully one day be
restored.? It is not that simple with a human life.
It is vital for us to examine our
hearts and see if there is something that is displeasing to
Jesus, something that might be hindering our fellowship with
Him.? If our hearts are not right before Him, then it is
impossible to treat others with the love and compassion that
He asks us to display to others.
Is your heart and life full of
hurricanes of jealousy, bitterness, envy, strife, anger, and
resentment?? If so, then I urge you to go to God and let Him
calm the storms in your heart.? Jesus will shower you with
His Peace, Understanding, Love, and Compassion and place His
Love in your heart instead of the hurricanes of the world.
