Having Jesus as the captain of your soul means trusting Him to steer you through life's storms. Mark 4:39 (GNT) says, "Jesus stood up and commanded the wind, 'Be quiet!' and he said to the waves, 'Be still!' The wind died down, and there was a great calm."
Navigating life's challenges with Jesus at the helm changes our approach to difficulties. Instead of being overwhelmed by fear and uncertainty, we can rely on His strength and promises. Knowing that He is in ultimate control, we find the courage to face whatever comes our way, trusting He will lead us safely through.
Allowing Jesus to be the captain of our souls also means following His teachings and example. Living according to His word aligns ourselves with God's will and purpose. This helps us to navigate not just the storms but also the everyday moments of life with grace and confidence.
