My Confidence for 2009

Today, I read about the disciples struggle with the wind across the lake as recorded in Mark 6:45. They were scared that they would drown. Fortunately, Jesus saw their struggles (he was not in the boat). He walked to them and calmed the wind. As I face the uncertainty that the new year will bring, I am convinced that he will see my struggles and come over to calm them. This is my hope for the new year.
