God’s Glory is Real Even When We Don’t See ItWritten by Daniel N. Brown
God’s glory is real even when we don’t see it. On gray, gloomy, rainy days, high above overcast sky, sun continues to shine. We can’t feel its warmth or see its beauty, but it still exists. God’s beauty and His love for us are real even when our circumstances are difficult. If we think “above clouds,” we can have hope knowing that God is still there.
| | A Strong AnchorWritten by Daniel N. Brown
Stories have been told about only thing that saved lives of people aboard a ship in a storm was a strong anchor. But, there are also stories of those who perished when their anchor did not hold.Luke and Apostle Paul were aboard a ship that was tossed by a raging storm. Luke writes in Acts 27:29, about actions of crew, “Fearing that we would be dashed against rocks, they dropped four anchors from stern and prayed for daylight.” It is written, “The Lord is good, a strong hold in day of trouble; and He knows them who trust Him.” (Nahum 1:7) What, or who, are you depending on to hold you in your storm? Is it God? Or, is it a particular person? How about money? If you are a Christian, God is your anchor and salvation can be found in no other. Jesus said, “I do not pray that you take them out of world, but that you keep them from evil.” (John 17:15) This is a promise that God will be our anchor in storm and that He will keep us in His care.
