He's in my boat

A storm was brewing in my life. Seemingly hopeless situations made waves too high to see past. I shut my eyes to rest and in my mind, Jesus and I were in a boat. The storm still raged around us and I was frantic for Him to intervene. But He just looked at me. His head was cocked, His eyes crinkled in laughter, and shining with love. I wanted him to fix this NOW, not laugh at me! His laughter carried the amusement I have felt when my kids were scared of the harmless. I realized He wanted me to know that in His presence, everything is under control. Jesus is in my boat. He will always be in my boat. On the other side of the waves, there is sunny peaceful weather. Philippians 1:6 , Romans 8:28
