Apart from Christ, you are crippled in the paralysis of sin. But when you choose to put your trust in Jesus and activate faith, He restores you and makes you whole!
Like Israel, we’ve all heard of God’s faithfulness, but we’ve also heard of the consequences of our unfaithfulness. God has called us to be faithful to Him, and it’s in keeping our loyalty to Him that we truly experience the life and blessings He has for us.
Jesus simply asks His disciples, ‘Why are you fearful?’ Now we can all think of at least a few reasons why fear might get the better of us. But though the storm is raging, Jesus is at rest. With Jesus in the boat, we don’t need to fear! Though trials will come, He will not let us drown. We need to take confidence in that.
Sin is not something we treat as though it were a minor surface problem or skin irritation. We are sinners in need of a heart transplant. It’s a sin issue that needs to be taken care of from the inside out. It’s a work only God can do!
