What a ministry Paul had at sea with the 275 other men on the ship. A great storm tossed the ship for many days. So much so, the men had no time to eat.
Several days later, Paul encouraged them all to eat. Acts 27 verses 35 and 36 say, "And when he had said these things, he took bread, and giving thanks to God in the presence of all he broke it and began to eat. Then they all were encouraged and ate some food for themselves."
I find it so cool how it is written that after Paul broke the bread, they all were encouraged! Their faith was strengthened and I believe the Lord's spirit filled them.
I need to remember that even in the storms of life, if we focus on the Lord and what He has done for us, we will be encouraged.
