Today's Scripture *December 26, 2008*
Mark 6: 49-50
But when they saw him walking on the water, they cried out in terror, thinking he was a ghost. They were all terrified when they saw him.
But Jesus spoke to them at once. Don't be afraid, he said. Take courage! I am here!
The disciples were afraid, but Jesus' presence calmed their fears.
When you experience fear, do you try to deal with it yourself, or do you let Jesus deal with it?
In times of fear and uncertainty, it is calming to know that Christ is always with you.
Matthew 28:20 Teach these new disciples to obey all the commands I have given you. And be sure of this: I am with you always, even to the end of the age.
To recognize Christ's presence is the antidote for fear!
Thank You Jesus that You are always here with us!
You will never leave us! Never forsake us!
Thank You that we can call on You and You will always hear us!
In Jesus' Name we pray, Amen..
God bless!
