Luke 8
There are going to be periods in our life where we question whether God exists or whether He cares about us - see John 16:33 where He tells us "in this world, you will have trouble". In the Garden of Eden, after The Fall, God promises Adam and Eve, and their descendants, a difficult life.
Yet we can always find our Lord and Savior - Jesus Christ - who is always with us. See Matthew 1:23. God will never leave or forsake us, and He is with us until the end of the age.
That said, the next question many will have is - where is God?
God is in the Bible - You will find Him (John 1:1).
God is in the church - in the fellowship of believers.
We have the Holy Spirit.
My Prayer: Lord Jesus, You are an amazing God who loves me and who has made Himself known to me and blessed me - my cup runs over. Thank You Jesus! I am undeserving of such blessings and such a God. I daily miss the mark. Please forgive me Jesus and help me overcome and turn from such sin towards You. Help me love You with all of my heart, soul, and mind and love others as You love me. Help me grow in my faith. Give Lisa and myself wisdom and strength. Please heal Lisa of her cancer and from the side effects of chemo. Help us lead Zach and Dustin to You Jesus and for them to choose You as their Lord and Savior. Please provide Godly friends and spouses to Zach and Dustin. Help me serve You, my family, my church, and others. Help me understand, be obedient to, and apply Your message for me today and every day.
In fear and amazement they asked one another, “Who is this? He commands even the winds and the water, and they obey him.” v25
