What’s That To You?
Being on the ocean when it is calm, is so peaceful to our soul. The water is so clear, and you can see the aquatic life everywhere. But when a storm moves thru, the ocean changes, transforming the tranquil waters into something rough & ugly; it is the last place anyone would want to be!
Our peace gets shattered by the intensifying wind, waves & lightning! Fear strikes a chord, as thoughts of sinking & floating in the ocean enters our mind. As the old quote says, “these are the times that try men’s souls”.
In like manner, this is what happens to our soul on a spiritual level, every time a storm moves in on our life – our Faith & Trust in God changes. We move from a peaceful state of soul, to being troubled and experiencing worry & anxiety. But God never created us to live this way! He is our Peace, all the time, thru thick or thin, as long as we stay focused on Him, in the midst of our life-storms!
