It is Jesus...



And straightway Jesus constrained his disciples to get into a ship, and to go before him unto the other side, while he sent the multitudes away.....But the ship was now in the midst of the sea, tossed with waves: for the wind was contrary.-Matt 14:22,24.

Could this be for real?.How do we explain this? We are certain "he constrained us to enter". Or could it be why He withdrew because He knew what's ahead? Such and such could be the thoughts of the disciples when the storm began.
It could seem ironic that one who has been created by God, called by God and sent by God should have any obstruction in the journey and not even by any other thing but by nature itself which is solely the masterpiece of God, Himself, but it happened. If the story had ended there, we could have a reason to worry. But, it didn't."And in the fourth watch of the night Jesus went unto them, walking on the sea"-v25.His power is so majestic that He does not recognize our times. He is so awesome that He defies nature. How pathetic it is that we are so limited in our imagination, otherwise, we could have known that He can still catch up with us, no matter the distance we have gone.
Has the waves (of challenges and difficulties) gone so high and the winds (of trials and temptations), gone so contrary that you are beginning to even deny yourself? Maybe, you just need to endure for a little while, perhaps into the night, for He will surely come to you. Child of God, brace up and wait for Your Maker, for you are the sheep of His pasture and the apple of His eye. He will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you can bear...It's time to look up and say, I know that my Redeemer lives and even if worms should eat up my flesh, I know that I shall yet see Him..Be of good cheer; it is Jesus..
