An Inspiring Story On The Depth Of Trust A Man Has In God. by Mhizkel(f): 10:12am On Jun 17, 2015
Many of us loose trust in God whenever we find ourselves in difficult situations. We have forgotten this Bible quotation: (Jeremiah 1:5) ''Before i formed you in the womb i knew you''. Do not be afraid because he knows the begining to the end.

The story goes thus;
A man just got married and was returning home with his wife.They were crossing a lake in a boat when suddenly, a great storm arose. The man was a warrior, but the woman became very much afraid because it seemed almost hopeless.
The boat was small and the storm was really huge. And any moment, they were going to be drowned. But the man sat silently, calm and quiet, as if nothing was happening.
The woman was trembling and she said; ''Are you not afraid?'' This may be our last moment of life! It doesn't seem we will be able to reach the other shore. Only some miracle can save us. Otherwise, death is certain. Are you not afraid? Are you mad or something? Are you a stone or something?
The man laughed and took the sword out of its sheath. The woman was even more puzzled. What he was doing? Then he brought the naked sword close to the woman's neck. So close that just a small gap was there, it was almost touching her neck. He said; ''Are you afraid''?
She started to laugh and said; ''Why should i be afraid? If the sword is in your hands, why should i be afraid? I know you love me''.
He put the sword back and said; ''This is my answer. I know God loves me, and the storm is in his hands. So WHATSOEVER IS GOING TO HAPPEN IS GOING TO BE GOOD. if we survive, good! If we don't survive, good! Because everything is in his hands and he cannot do anything wrong.

Moral: This short story inspires us to develop
TRUST. This is the trust we need to imbibe, and which is capable of transforming your whole life. Any less won't do!

God bless you all....

Inspiring! Reminds me of this song:


"With My Saviour ever near to guide me, I am safe whatever may betide me; from the storm and tempest he will hide me, In the Hollow of His Hand"
