ON BROKEN PIECES

     Although the ships of our lives may be shattered, the bible teaches us in the 27th chapter of Acts to hold on to broken pieces until we get to dry land. We don't have to go down with the ship. All we have to do is hold fast to the confidence we have in Christ Jesus and hang on til morning. So if your husband or wife walks away, just hold on to broken pieces. If you have lost a loved one, just hold on to broken pieces. If your children haven't come home and can't be found, just hold on to broken pieces. If you just go laid off on your job, just hold on to broken pieces. Grab a piece and hold on til daylight. Hold on.....keep your head above the rugged waters of your situation and hold on because dry land is ahead! Hallelujah! 
     Just because the water has been troubled, does not mean you have to be.  Because Paul believed the report of the Lord, he could rest in God's peace.  The kind of peace that passeth all understanding.  This is what keeps our hearts and minds through Jesus Christ.  The soldiers that were aboard decided to hold fast to the confidence that Paul had in God and this placed them all in one accord.  If we as Christian people would learn to get in one accord believing only the report of the Lord and stop jumping ship, it would never matter that the ship gets wrecked because we know by faith that our souls have been anchored and we'll be alright even if we have to float in on broken pieces.  Hallelujah to the Lamb of God.  THAT'S THE REAL TRUTH
