THE CRISIS ALREADY PASSED
During this time people feel like they are in a storm, health, money, jobs are affected, they start fighting at home due to stress, etc.
There was a storm, but the crisis was already over for the disciples when Jesus appeared in the boat and said those words from the previous verse.
For those of us who are in God, the crisis has passed. We follow the instructions of the government, but in our mind, spirit, and heart the crisis has passed, and we should not be afraid, fearful, depressed or full of anxiety. “Take courage because I am here.” Jesus tells you.
We must feel safe, even though the world is trembling with crisis, our house will not fall, for me the crisis is over because Jesus is in my boat, He is in my house, therefore, you and I will have a roof, food, clothes, transportation and we won’t lack anything.
God is present, don’t fear, have courage, don’t faint, God is with you and we will overcome.
When Jesus enters into people’s hearts the virus will stop. Don’t put your trust in the government, your employer, your checkbook, your retirement plan, or your life insurance, etc. put your trust in the source, the author of life: God. Put Jesus in your heart and you will see that the storm calms down.
The storm was present (virus) but for the disciples it was over when Jesus got into the boat, they crossed and arrived. You will arrive, you will reach your destination in Christ.
Think about it:
Have you felt like you are in a storm?
Is Jesus in your boat (your heart)?
