Calming the Storm
Matthew 8 : 23 - 27 " ....Then he stood up and
rebuked the wind and waves, and the storm subsided and all was calm ....."
Beyond the story of Jesus calming the storm on the Sea of
Galilee in about AD 28 is a deeper meaning for us today. When the storms of
this life wake us, shake us up, and weigh on our hearts, we have the promise
of calm and comfort of the presence of God's Son.
Our Heavenly Father,
We pray this day for the calm and comfort found in
your loving arms. Strengthen us to relieve the doubts and fears and worries of
this day's troubles. Help us to be quiet and be open to the Spirit, filling us with peace. As
the disciples asked that night " who is this ?", we pray for more
understanding of the power of the risen Christ in our lives. In His
calming name we pray, Amen.
