Master - Daily in Your Presence - Jan. 11

Day 11

MASTER
 

"Master, Master". . . .

"Who is this?  He commands even

the winds and the water,

and they obey him."

Luke 8:24-25

FROM THE FATHER'S HEART
My child, you will never be at peace until you submit to My authority. My commands are not burdensome, and neither are they unreasonable. Have you not learned that with one word I can send demons fleeing and dispense angel beings to carry out My wishes? Relinquish your misplaced control, no matter what your circumstances. You are not the captain of your fate. I am.

A GRATEFUL RESPONSE
Lord, I hear Your quiet whispers as You comfort my heart and calm my fears. With a simple "Peace, be still!" a thousand raging thoughts obey Your voice. Gently, You set my sails toward land. I praise You, master of my life.

SIMPLE TRUTH

When God is in control, He puts our fears on hold.
