Grace and peace to you from our Lord Jesus Christ.
Imagine the disciples. Everything is going fine. They are with Jesus in the boat; Jesus has been teaching them; Jesus has been healing people; the ministry is getting a decent following. Now they find themselves in the midst of a huge storm. Thinking their lives are about to end they begin to panic. Everything that was good in their lives is now, in their minds, gone. Finally Jesus wakes up and calms the storm, rescuing them from this hard time. Isn't that what our journey of faith is like? For a while everything is going great. We have everything we need, and so much more. But then, like the disciples, we find ourselves in a big storm, and that storm threatens everything, even our own lives. We need Jesus to wake up and calm the storm. He does. If we ask, and then allow Jesus to work in our lives, what we will find is that Jesus can and will calm the storms in our lives. Like he did for the disciples, Jesus will rescue us from the storms in our lives. God bless you.
