God's people have had to walk through many struggles. In today's text we've seen another retelling of a familiar story in which God gives His people rest and bread, then sends them away before their enemies get to them. It has been said that you know who someone's God is by seeing who they cry out to when life gets hard. The one you expect to deliver you in your day of testing is your god – for some this is their bank account. For others it is the government. For others it is their intelligence. It could be a friend or a family member, but for Peter, it is Christ. Christ holds the power of winds and waves in His hands, and He will turn them back at precisely the right moment. He often comes to us in unexpected and even frightening ways. We must always look to Christ instead of to ourselves, but when these volatile seasons come our way, the importance of looking to Christ is highlighted. Left to ourselves we struggle and sink. Left in the hands of Christ, we will be rescued and brought to safety until the storm passes by.
