A man who was newly married was on his way back home with his bride in a boat, traversing a river.
Suddenly a storm arose and the wife trembled with fear but on the other hand, the man sat calm and composed unmindful of the calamity that ragged around him.
The wife asked “Are you not scared? You seem to be least bothered about the storm. Are you aware that the boat may capsize and we may be drowned?”
The man, who was a warrior, at once removed his sword from the sheath and pointed it close to his wife’s neck and asked, “Are you not scared?” The wife said, “Why should I? The sword is in your hand, but I’m not frightened as I am ware that you love me.”
The man replied, “Why should I get scared too? For the sword is in God’s hand, whatever He does I take it to be for my good. If we survive or if we die in the storm, I believe it to be for our good. I trust Him.”
Do we really trust God at all times and in all circumstances? The trust the warrior had is that such should be one’s trust towards God. Such trust is capable of transforming one’s life.
Always have faith in God for He has said, “I will never leave you nor forsake you…”
Dear friends, you may be going through life’s storm but be assured that God will never never let you down if you have faith and put your trust in Him. He is watching over you and will always look after you – Cheer up!
