Acts 27: 22-25 “But now I urge you to keep up your courage, because not one of you will be lost; only the ship will be destroyed. Last night an angel of the God whose I am and whom I serve stood beside me and said, ‘Do not be afraid, Paul. You must stand trial before Caesar; and God has graciously given you the lives of all who sail with you.’ So keep up your courage, men, for I have faith in God that it will happen just as he told me.”
When things get bad, isn’t it comforting to know that God is there? Here we see everyone around Paul thinking the worst because they only saw things through human eyes. Paul saw the situation through Gods’ eyes because I believe Paul was trusting God to get then through the storm. He had enough faith for all of them. We need to be like Paul and trust in God to get us through the storm, even when our friends are telling us otherwise.
