The reality of life is that there are days where sometimes it feels like life is just pouring down tough situation after tough situation over us, like a rainstorm that just won’t stop, and no matter where you turn, you can’t find any shelter from the rain. Or like crashing waves, just hitting you and knocking you off your feet, one after another. Not sure about you, but I’ve felt that way at times. Even in the midst of the toughest days, Jesus promises to walk alongside us in those times. When we’re feeling overwhelmed, when we’re feeling tired, or when we’re just feeling down, Jesus promises to be present in those moments. I’m reminded of when Jesus was on the boat with his disciples, and they were in the middle of an intense storm. The waves were crashing and throwing the boat side to side, and the disciples were pretty much fearing for their lives. The disciples called upon Jesus and were actually kind of upset with him at this moment. Jesus was taking a nap during this storm, and the disciples felt like he didn’t care about the chaos they were experiencing. However, when they called upon Jesus, he was able to calm the waves, and bring complete peace to the situation. The same thing Jesus did with the storm and the waves, he can do with your life. He can bring peace and calmness on the days where everything just feels like too much. Jesus promises to be your peace and your God, through the bad days and the good days. He will be your God, through all of it. To listen to Through All Of It on TheOverflow please visit bit.ly/1FPjNUt
