Are you bouncing about in a northeaster? Like the sailors you’ve done all you can to survive: you’ve tightened the ship, lowered the anchor. You’ve consulted the bank, changed your diet, called the lawyers, called your supervisor, tightened your budget. You’ve gone for counseling, rehab, or therapy. Yet the sea churns with angry foam. Is fear coming at you from all sides? Then let God speak to you. Let God give you what he gave the sailors: perfect peace.
