“Like Paul, I was violently storm-tossed at sea. The trip started off so well. There were warning signs but I just ignored them because I thought I knew God (I knew who He was but did not abide in Him).
On my journey, I anchored myself to the man I married and not on God. That was the time sailing was so difficult; I faced the fiercest storm in my life. Everything was stripped away. I remembered God’s promise but in fear and shame, I chose not to turn to Him. I tried living my life on my own. I was sailing for more than eight years with God just in my head (not seeking/ obeying His word).
Like Paul’s shipmates, I put my trust and hope on cargo, I was also tempted to jump ship and take my chances to row for shore. I even wished to die in the sinking ship. When everything seemed hopeless and I was too tired, I remembered His promise that He will sustain me to the end.
So I decided to stay aboard while the ship is sinking. I put my trust in Him. God saved me. He is a Promise Keeper.
He is my Deliverer. Now, I am able to say that God has brought me safely to the SHORE!
I am praying for my dear sissies who are facing their STORMS right now whether it’s for correcting or perfecting, please remember that God is above all! Hold on to His promises; don’t give up. He is in control.
I Corinthians 1:8 He will sustain you to the end, guiltless in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Philippians 1:6 I am sure of this, that He who began a good work in you will bring it to completion at the day of Jesus Christ.”
