Often folk ask "what makes a great Christian?" thinking it may be prayer, bible knowledge or even charity. In this devotional an old man of God tells us what really matters.

@weavers4jesus oh, my gosh!! This makes me cry for him! May our great and awesome Creator shower his poor man with love, calm his fear and cause every nerve ending to go numb until his body is completely healed.
@Jo_PrayerN_actionCenter may our Lord calm the waters, carry the boats, and strengthen every servant physically and spiritually to deliver the gospel to those that live in darkness. Lord, plz open their hearts to receive your life giving words.
@tanjaostman Beautiful!!
@TakeN Oh, here's another guess. Electricity? A spark can jump.
@TakeN Okay. Then, I'll wait for you to reveal the answer, unless another possibility comes to mind before then.
@tanjaostman It looks lovely and refreshing! The Creator is never to be surpassed...He knew what He was doing when He created the earth and everything in it. He knew what He was doing when He made us. He still knows best! I love seeing the amazing details in nature... I often say to my husband, "It's not evolution". There's far too much diversity, complexity, and amazing wisdom for these things to exist by chance!
@tanjaostman it sounds much worse than it was. no one was worried, so I didn't worry. everyone found it humorous. it was just Turkey flexing their muscles.
As for being afraid....hmmmmm....
I'm an empty nester now, I have raised two amazing boys, loved and been loved by an amazing woman, have friends that I would lay down my life for, and have witnessed the power of God more times than I deserve.
i've lived 10 lives and am now more than twice the age my father lived to be, so when my time comes, they will not be able to keep me from smiling.
@Jo_PrayerN_actionCenter Thank you for these challenging words. It is serious. May we be obedient. It is easy to be alarmed at the waves, but there is so much at stake for the glory of our Lord.
The real danger is not the choppy waters or the leaking boat!
If fear is keeping you away from people in need who have never heard the Salvation message, the Master will say one day " I never knew you " (Mattew 7:21-23).
It is not the will of the Father, even children to perish without Jesus (Mattew 18:14).
Pray for those who are winning souls, not counting the dangers.
@weavers4jesus May he have supernatural healing and comfort and those caring for him be given compassion and wisdom. May you also be protected in your kitchen and elsewhere. May you be given peace and joy in the midst of the many trials.
@TakeN A car? Or auto?
@tanjaostman I asked a loaded question, but I asked it of myself first. It seems as though God has put amazing natural healing power in us no matter what terrible disease comes along, there are always many who survive it. In a way, this is miraculous, but people always want to look at the ones who died and say, "see!" as if to discredit God. They rarely say, "See! God does what he says." But then there is James chapter 5 about praying for the sick believer. The only requirement is Faith. "..and the sick WILL get well. And if he had comitted any sins, he will be forgiven." Is this miraculous? No matter how you look at it, it all goes back to the Supernatural and Christ. In a way, all healing is miraculous.
I will look at your link, now.
