Peace in the storm

Today I’m reminded that no matter what storm I’m facing… He will always be there to guide and protect.
In Matthew 14:22-33, Jesus meets the diciples in the middle of the lake AND in the MIDST of the storm. I think he did this for a few reasons. To prove to them that he was the son of God and to test their faith. What I like the most about this story is that he came to them in the middle of the storm. And what this tells me is that no matter what I’m going through (spiritally, mentally, physically) – He will be there, reaching out his hand and telling me to come out and walk with him.
My life will never be comfortable, and I don’t want it to be. I want to continue seeking and growing. So even when the storm comes, and it will, God will always be there to meet me where I am and carry me through.
