Hi!
Bible in a Year:
Peace, be still!
In Papua New Guinea, the Kandas tribe awaited with excitement the arrival of New Testament Bibles printed in their language. To reach the village, however, the people bringing the books had to travel on the ocean in small boats.
What gave them courage to travel across great waters? Their seafaring skills, yes. But they also knew who created the seas. He’s the One who guides each of us across our life’s churning waves and deepest waters.
As David wrote, “Where can I go from your Spirit?” (Psalm 139:7). “If I go up to the heavens, you are there; . . . if I settle on the far side of the sea, even there your hand will guide me, your right hand will hold me fast” (vv. 8–10).
These words would resonate deeply with the Kandas, who live on an island nation whose tropical coasts, dense rainforests, and rugged mountains have been called “The Last Unknown.” Yet as believers there and everywhere know, no place or problem is too remote for God. “Even the darkness will not be dark to you,” says Psalm 139:12, and “the night will shine like the day, for darkness is as light to you.”
On stormy waters, therefore, our God speaks, “Peace, be still!” and the waves and wind obey (Mark 4:39 nkjv). So, don’t fear life’s deep or turbulent waters today. Our God safely leads us ashore.
Reflect & Pray
What tempts you not to trust God? What do you need to trust Him with today?
Dear heavenly Father, You rule life’s winds and waves, and I thank You for guiding me safely to shore.

Driving in my car, smoking my cigar, The only time I’m happy’s when I play my guitar. Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah. Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah. Singing in my yacht, what a lot I got, Happiness is something that just cannot be bought. Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah. Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah. I’ve been in and I’m out, I’ve been up and down, I don’t want to go until I’ve been all ...
