Calm


And a great windstorm arose, and the waves beat into the boat, so that it was already filling.  But He was in the stern, asleep on a pillow. And they awoke Him and said to Him, "Teacher, do You not care that we are perishing?"  Then He arose and rebuked the wind, and said to the sea, "Peace, be still!" And the wind ceased and there was a great calm.  But He said to them, "Why are you so fearful? How is it that you have no faith?"  And they feared exceedingly, and said to one another, "Who can this be, that even the wind and the sea obey Him!" Mark 4:37-41 NKJ

His name is Jesus.  Even today this Man is longing to calm the wind and sea for us.  Will we allow Him to do so?

  5. I have had many storms in my life. When I have called upon Jesus, He has calmed them or at least been my anchor. Praise Him!
