COURAGE STORY · THE SHIPWRECK · ACTS 27
DAY 02
I Believe God
“Keep up your courage, for there will be no loss of life among you. I believe God, that it will be exactly as I was told.”
Acts 27:22–25
Reflection
Paul was a prisoner on that ship with no authority over anyone, and he became the calmest person in the hold. In a crisis, one person's steadiness is a resource everybody else draws on.
PRAY
Lord, make me the steady one in this room. Not falsely cheerful and not pretending — just steady enough that someone frightened can stand near me.
Amen.
DECLARE
My steadiness is something other people can borrow.
TODAY'S PRACTICE
Say one true, calm thing to someone who is frightened today. No forced optimism, no minimizing.
