"but the boat by this time was a long way from the land, beaten by the waves, for the wind was against them. 25 And in the fourth watch of the night he came to them, walking on the sea."
Beaten by the waves, when it looked like everything was against them and stability was just a distant shoreline; unattainable in their present condition. It was during this time, that Jesus come to them during an impossible circumstance, in an impossible way.
Everything in me; the pent up anger, bottled up tears, weariness from striving, yearns to see Christ walking above all these buffeting waves and turbulent storms; coming towards me with kindness in His eyes and confidence in His movements. This storm does not phase Him the way it phases me. Could He be calling me to that same confidence and peace? Not an end to the storm, but the confidence to walk on its waves?
