Daily Devotional with Max Lucado
“The One who came still comes and the One who spoke still speaks”
Take courage, it is I; do not be afraid. - Matthew 14:27 (NASB)
Waves slapping his waist and rain stinging his face. Jesus speaks to [the disciples] at once. "Courage! I am! Don't be afraid!"
Speaking from a burning bush to a knee-knocking Moses, God announced,
"I AM WHO I AM" (Exod. 3:14 NASB).
God gets into things! Red Seas....Judean wildernesses, weddings, funerals,
and Galilean tempests. Look and you'll find what everyone from Moses to Martha discovered.
God in the middle of our storms.
Everyday Blessing
