Obedience in the Midst of Resistance đ
Today in Mark 6:45-48, we were reminded that just because the wind is against you doesnât mean God is against you.
Jesus sent the disciples into the boat, yet they still encountered resistance. The storm wasnât evidence of disobedienceâit was part of Godâs process of developing them.
Many of us are rowing through difficult seasons right now. Family challenges. Health concerns. Financial pressures. Unanswered questions.
But take heart:
â
God sees your obedience.
â
God sees your struggle.
â
God has authority over what overwhelms you.
â
God is using resistance to develop strength in you.
The disciples were straining at the oars, but Jesus never lost sight of them. While they were battling the wind, He was watching from the mountain. And at just the right time, He came to them.
Donât mistake resistance for abandonment.
