Do you remember that violent, vicious storm that came up one night, while Christ and the disciples were out on the ship? As the disciples freaked out and ran around fretting....Christ slept.
I'd bet they were thinking - why won't He get up and SAVE us?? Look, He's sleeping like a baby!!
But, I say, He was just showing us the way. Sometimes, life with become a violent, vicious storm that suddenly comes up and threatens to swallow us, sweeping us out to sea.
What we must do, when that storm comes, is sleep. Alright, I'm not advocating going back to bed and pulling the covers up over your head when things are rough. In this sense, our sleep is rest. When that storm comes, we must rest on the Lord....knowing that He will take care of us - and fully trusting that He only wants the best for us. He always acts for good and not evil.
Then and only then will we be able to fully rest in the Lord during the violent, vicious storms of life crash into us. Then and only then will we be given the peace to sleep through every storm.
See you in 30.
Dei gratia,
Dee
