Please read this small story!!
An old captain once took his ship to an island. There were a lot of young men who travelled in that ship . When they were elated about going to an island, they saw the captain praying before commencing the journey. They made fun of the captain and laughed at him. This was because there was no disturbance caused by nature to mar their journey and the weather was very pleasant and conducive for the journey then why is he praying ?, they thought. Unexpectedly gauge gust of wind that blew shook the ship violently. While a few passengers shouted out of fear, a few others raised a huge uproar. They were haunted by the fear that the day they had started with pleasantness might end up in a sorrow filled one. They ran towards the captain with fear. Our friends are praying for our well being please you also join us in prayer. The captain patiently replied, my job is to pray when everything is peaceful and to set things right when things go wrong in the ship and are in a messy situation. If we don't seek Him when at peace, we won't be able to when we are amidst troubles and will have to undergo unpleasantness and will have to panic. When we surrender ourselves and all our intentions in His hands and pray right in the morning, no storm can move us..
Did you pray in the morning
