Life's Storms

By Kay Heitsch

We all experience storms in our lives. These times are not easy, and remaining calm and knowing what to do is challenging.

This happened to me. I was not calm, and I didn't know what to do when Todd died. I wanted this to be a bad nightmare, and I was going to wake up, but it wasn't. Amid the most horrible storm in my life, I found Jesus. He calmed the storm and gave me peace.

Our Bible verse says. Jesus said to the sea, “Be still!” And the wind died down, and it was perfectly calm. Mark 4:39

That day, I found Jesus. He told the storm in my life, "Be still." My mind started to relax immediately, and I became perfectly calm.

When we find Jesus in the middle of our storms, He tells the storm to "Be Still." When He does, we relax and become perfectly calm.
