Silencing the Inner Storm of Catastrophic Thoughts
Invite Jesus to step into your racing thoughts and speak His sovereign 'Peace, be still!'
Devotional
When waves beat into the disciples' boat and water was filling it, Jesus was asleep on a cushion. They woke Him in panic: 'Teacher, do You not care that we are perishing?' Jesus arose and rebuked the wind and sea: 'Peace, be still!' The same voice that quieted Galilee can quiet your soul today.

Stand up in the boat of my soul and speak Your commanding peace: 'Peace, be still!' Calm the racing pulse, quiet the irrational dread, and anchor my thoughts in Your sovereignty. You care for me, and I trust You in the storm. Amen.
