Sail on, as the sea of life roars on!


"...Fear not for I have redeemed you: I have summoned you by name; you are mine. when you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and when you pass through the rivers they will not sweep over you. When you walk through the fire you will not be burned; the flames will not set you a blaze.

For I am the Lord, your God, the Holy one of Israel, your Savior; I give Egypt for your ransom, Cush and Seba in your stead."

Isaiah 43:1-3 (NIV)


"I will say to the north, 'Give them up!' and to the south, 'Do not hold them back.'


Bring my sons from afar and my daughters from the ends of the earth- everyone who is called by my name whom I created for my glory, whom I formed and made." Isaiah 43:5-7 (NIV)


There maybe times in your life when you ask, "Does God really care or even know what I'm going through?" I would like to assure you, God does care and has provided a way to see you, or your loved ones through everything you will go through in life.


God is here let Him help you.


"Be strong and courageous, Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the Lord your God goes with you; He will never leave you or forsake you." Deuteronomy 31:6 (NIV)


Whether you're fretting over your self, or a loved one today, remember God has given you everything you need to overcome the problem through the Holy spirit that dwells within you, if you've asked Jesus Christ in your life as your Savior.


"You dear children, are from God and have overcome them, because the one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world."

1 John 4:4 (NIV)


Life can be an angry sea, that can toss us all to and fro. It is so important to remember, that the same God who formed us is in control. There is nothing you can not get through with Jesus Christ. Let go of the fear, and cling to God, your sustainer.


If you're concerned over a loved ones seemingly wayward lifestyle remember this dear friend: The same God who provided your salvation through Jesus His son, has placed that person in your life. As you read over Isaiah chapter 43, take verses five through seven into your heart. God entrusted the children, spouses or friends we have into our lives for a reason. Live your life as a godly example. The best sermons are preached by example, not by words. In His time God will bring them back. Until then, keep loving, and living Christ in you the hope of glory.
