Always Protected

I noticed, as I was coming home from school the other day, the inlet of an ocean not far from my house. The water was dark and gray. It thrashed about and tossed helpless floating docks everywhere. It was beautiful and frightening all at the same time. I don't know if any of you have ever listened to the song "Sometimes He calms the Storm", but that water sure looked like a storm was about to break loose. As I looked at the water, I remembered how God has promised us that he will never leave us, no matter how hard things get. It doesn't matter if the water is trying to swallow you whole, it doesn't matter if the wind won't stop battering you to pieces, God is always there for you. All you have to do is cry out to Him.

"Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you." Hebrews 13:5b
"As I was with Moses, so I will be with you; I will never leave you nor forsake you." Joshua 1:5b

-Peace
