When Jesus met the wind and the waves
August 16, 2020
The disciples are afraid they’re going to die and Jesus is asleep in their boat. When he wakes, he silences the storm with a word and the disciples are left in awe, wondering who on earth stands before them. Jesus is the only one with power to calm the storm. Will you invite Him into your boat? And will you trust that He is the only one who can handle the storms you’re currently facing?

Luke 8:22–25 (Listen)
Jesus Calms a Storm
22 One day he got into a boat with his disciples, and he said to them, “Let us go across to the other side of the lake.” So they set out, 23 and as they sailed he fell asleep. And a windstorm came down on the lake, and they were filling with water and were in danger. 24 And they went and woke him, saying, “Master, Master, we are perishing!” And he awoke and rebuked the wind and the raging waves, and they ceased, and there was a calm. 25 He said to them, “Where is your faith?” And they were afraid, and they marveled, saying to one another, “Who then is this, that he commands even winds and water, and they obey him?”
