Oh We of Little Faith
In today's world it is easy to find things that shake our faith and storms that seem to rock us to our core. Death of loved ones, loss of jobs, broken relationships, and even loneliness can cause our eyes to shift to our circumstances. But if we remember that Christ has the power to calm the storm and even his child, then he will do just that for us.
Consider the disciples as they were on the ship, Jesus was on board and napping below. Suddenly, a storm started and the tides began to rise. The disciples became afraid and anxious, they tried everything they could think of and finally woke up the Savior Jesus. First he spoke to them basically announcing the their faith was so small and then simultaneously calmed the storm as he disclaimed "Peace be still". The storm ceased, the tides became clam and so did their anxiety and worries. They spoke among them selves "who is this one that even the winds and waves obey his will".
We shouldn't be amazed that Jesus can work in the midst of our storms. We should be amazed that we didn't trust him sooner.
Are you facing a storm? Do the odds seem to overwhelm you? We'd love to here from you!!! Is there something you'd like to discuss, leave us a comment......
