As they were crossing the lake in their tiny boat, a powerful storm overcame them. They came to a frightful conclusion, "we're going to drown!" (Luke 8:24).
However, that was not the truth. The Truth was lying, asleep in the hull of the boat - Jesus was the truth and his power changed the reality of the raging storm to calm waters.
Jesus said, "I am the truth, the way and the life" (John 14:6) and that is so regardless of your perception of truth. Whatever your "storm," your faith in The Lord, changes the final word on it to Victory!
Perception is not reality - the power of Christ released on the cross is reality: "...you will have trouble but take heart! I have overcome the world" (Jn 16:33). That is what makes "Good Friday" so good! Victory was gained over sin and death, and the final word for Jesus Followers is LIFE! Jus' Say'n.
