Always Have Faith!
When I saw this Story, I knew it had so much of me in it, I also wanted to use this story to encourage us that we should not be scared of anything in life Because our God is able to protect and keep us safe always in Jesus Mighty Name Amen.
I live by this passage in the Bible Philipians 4:6 6Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. Always have faith in God no matter what! He is always faithful.
IS YOUR HUT BURNING?
The only survivor of a shipwreck was washed up on a small, uninhabited island. He prayed feverishly for God to rescue him, and every day he scanned the horizon for help, but none seemed forthcoming.
Exhausted, he eventually managed to build a little hut out of driftwood to protect him from the elements, and to store his few possessions. But then one day, after scavenging for food, he arrived home to find his little hut in flames, the smoke rolling up to the sky. The worst had happened; everything was lost. He was stunned with grief and anger. "God, how could you do this to me!" he cried.
Early the next day, however, he was awakened by the sound of a ship that was approaching the island. It had come to rescue him. "How did you know I was here?" asked the weary man of his rescuers. "We saw your smoke signal," they replied.
It is easy to get discouraged when things are going badly. But we shouldn't lose heart, because God is at work in our lives, even in the midst of pain and suffering.
Remember, next time your little hut is burning to the ground --- it just may be a smoke signal that summons the grace of God.

Thats an amazing story, and just another reminder that God is still working behind the scenes even when all we can see is the evidence in front of us.

ReplyDeleteI've heard that story a lot of times, but that's a good reminder. That person needed trust.
