My wife enjoys swimming laps in a heated pool. This hobby relaxes her. Paul and his companions, however, were swimming to survive. They only wanted to reach land. Relaxation wasn't even considered!
Some passengers from Paul's ship reached land by clinging to broken boards. These planks no longer served their original purpose. Yet their brokenness created a new usefulness. The ship's splintered timbers were valuable floats.
Similar to the boards, we are broken by storms. Our spirits are crushed among overwhelming circumstances. Fractures can heal as we continue to serve our Savior. Tempestuous winds may hurl us on strange shores. We are broken but still useful. Christians can bless others who are attempting to pick up the pieces from their disasters.
God kept His promise to spare the lives of everyone on board the ship. He still keeps His promises today.
Father, use my brokenness to help fulfill your promises.
