Those million things on your to-do list? They can wait. Spending time with Him can’t.

You can’t pour from an empty cup, and the One who fulfills is waiting for you. Remember the story of Jesus and His disciples on the boat? The storm was raging, waves crashing, and fear rising. But what did the Lord say (after taking a much-needed nap)?

“Peace, be still.”

With just three words, the wind and waves obeyed instantly. That same power that calmed a raging storm, can calm your heart today.
