For the
believer, it is awesome to experience the thrill that accompanies being carried
in the savior’s mighty hands. Conversely, it’s a most dreadful thing to face
life’s challenges without the savior. Jesus is a refuge and a shepherd true to
those who by repentance
have buried their sins and by faith have received His
atoning forgiveness.
A dear
saint once told the story of how she went through the roughest times of life
but eventually came out triumphant. Later in a dream the lord took her through
the hard journey and the eventual victory. She saw two sets of footprints on
the sand for much of the journey; they signified the lord walking by her side. In
patches along the journey however, especially at those most stormy points, she
saw only one set of footprints. “Lord”, she cried, “why did you seem to
consistently leave me alone in my toughest hours? See, there is only set of
footprints!” “Daughter”, the Lord calmly replied, “those footprints are mine. In
those difficult moments, I was carrying you.” Are you born again? Rest in Christ’s
love and He’ll carry you through life’s storms.
Challenge:
Storms are heaven’s staircase to victory when Jesus is near.
Prayer:
Lord let me feel You near me always.
