Paul had been put on a ship sailing to Rome to stand trial before Caesar, but as it attempted to reach a safe harbor to Winter over in the ship was caught up in a violent storm & driven helplessly along by it. For many days the ship was battered by ferocious winds with neither the sun nor stars for guidance. As the storm raged on it says all aboard gave up all hope of being saved…but then God intervened with a message to Paul that all was not lost. The storms that enter our lives are very much like that…the winds turn against us… it seems like we’re being swept along against our will as we’re battered from all sides…finally finding ourselves overwhelmed by hopelessness. But just like Paul, God is there to calm the sea of chaos around us…reminding us to set our eyes on Him and not to be afraid.
