A Note To My Best Friend

Dear Christian. Be filled with praise and give abundant thanks that you serve the God of infinite peace! Forget not the picture of your Savior slumbering serenely in the midst of a chaotic, turbulent storm, whose power is so great, He need but only speak a word, "peace." And instantly the rushing water and whooshing winds obeyed Him and all was still and silent, at perfect rest. Dear Christian, empowered by the Holy Spirit that dwells within you, fret not. Your God is more than able to calm any storm that rages within your fearful heart. If Jesus was able to cast out demons, heal the sick, and raise from the dead, if Jesus was able to pluck a wretched sinner like you from the mire and muck and to translate you into the kingdom of the Son of His love, how much more can He soothe your worried spirit and ease your troubled mind? He is able and willing to accomplish what concerns you. Rest, dear Christian, rest!
