[vn-families] FWD: PEACE IN THE STORM

[angmaytrang]

  You will keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on You, because he trusts in You.------------Isaiah 26:3

   
  Life can seem 'unbearable' at times. Physical pain, difficult' decisions, financial hardships, the d eath of a loved 'one, or s hattered dreams threaten to 'engulf 'us. We become 'fearful 'and 'perplexed. Plagued by doubts, we may even find it difficult to pray.
  Those of us who know the Lord through personal faith in Christ have in Him a calm retreat in the storm of life, even while the howling 'winds of trial 'are sweeping ov er us. We can experience peace of mind and calmness of spirit.
Richard Fuller, a 19th-century minister, told of an old seaman who said, "In 'fierce storms, we must put the ship in a certain position and keep h er there." Said Fuller, "This, Chritian, is what you must do....You must put your soul in one position and keep it there. You must stay upon the Lord; and, come w hat may--------winds, waves, cross seas, thunder, lightning, frowning rocks, roaring' breakers----------no matter what, you must hold fast your confidence in God's faithfulness and His everlasting love in Christ Jesus."
  Do you feel overwhelmed by your troubles? Learn a lesson from that old sailor. Fix your mind on the Lord. Ask for His help. Then trust Him to give you peace in your storm(Phil. 4:6-7).----------------Richard De Haan
Stayed upon Jehovah,
Hearts are fully blest---
  Finding, as He promised,
Perfect peace and rest.----------Havergal
