We need Jesus. And we ll need to go beyond just a glimpse of Jesus. We need to have our souls, our minds, our hearts, our lives full of Him. He will bring joy and gladness in exchange for sin and sadness. But we must let Him flood our beings with all there is of Him.
Human anchors don t really save.
They merely get us stuck in the mud or in the storm. And the security Jesus offers does not depend on location. Paul s display of sanity, stability, and serenity on the S. S. Alexandria didn t depend on the location of the ship. Nor was it a matter of how the wind was blowing. Or how far from port the ship was in distress.
