Nostalgia

We should not waste our time waiting for the present to turn back into the past; we should seize the day and do that which we have been called to do right here and right now.

Faith in the storm

"Where is your faith?" (Luke 8:25) Well might He ask that question! Where was the profit of believing, if they could not believe in the time of need? Where was the real value of faith, unless they kept it in active exercise? Where was the benefit of trusting, if they were to trust their Master in the sunshine only, but not in storms?
