Sailing

It is so encouraging to know as believers that God is in control, thru the good and the bad!

Sometimes as we go thru things I think we forget we have this great big powerful God that has our situation in control. If we just accept our situations and let God be in control he will help us keep it all together.

As Christians we also have to lay down our pride and allow our brothers and sisters in Christ encourage us and help us thru our crisis. The bible over and over repeats how we need to help one another and be there for each other.

A great example for us to follow is Job. When all the pressure came down he held onto God and his promises. He didn't crumble or break, he didn't run away, he faced the problem head on with God on his side!

Hebrews 6:19 says " We have this hope as an anchor for the soul, firm and secure..."; this is how we need to live. Hanging onto the anchor of hope in Christ Jesus!
