 "His Voice Today"


December 29


🔸️ We must hear His "gentle voice" in our distress! 🔸️


When the Disciples were afraid that a "great windstorm" would drown them, Lord Jesus Christ stepped on the sea, approached the Disciples and said in a gentle voice, "Do not be afraid." At that time the tornado calmed down immediately!! Even today, any storm that threatens and disturbs us in our lives, He makes it to calm down with His "gentle voice"... Yes, He, is still unchanging today. "Your mercy (gentle voice) makes me great" (Ps.18:35). How true is the Verse!!


Do we have to face the hostility of others? If so, "think of Jesus who patiently endured it when sinful people acted so hostilely against him." (Hebrews 12:3). The animosity we encounter from our friends and relatives is a sign that we are on the right track! "In this path only" we meet Jesus. Although He suffered due to hostility, He conquered evil by good without admitting himself to self-pity and to blame others! He forgave and blessed those who blamed him! In that situation, He listened to His father's gentle whisper and entrusted His affairs to Him!!


Our Father, who watches over our talkings and activities, will one day judge everything justly. There will be no discrimination in His judgment. Because He knows the trueness of each and every situation! 


If we entrust our activities to the Father as Jesus did and listen to His gentle voice, we can overcome all feelings of self-pity and rejoice in the partaking of His sufferings! If we do so, we can put an end to all evil backbiting, blaming others, expecting favours from others and can put an end to the attitudes of self-protection, self-justification and self-pity!!


Prayer:

Heavenly Father! Give us the grace to listen to "Your gentle voice" and walk in Jesus' blessed footsteps in the midst of great storms and hostilities! In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, Amen.
