Calming of the Storm

Matthew 8:23-27

New International Version (NIV)

Jesus Calms the Storm

23 Then he got into the boat and his disciples followed him. 24 Suddenly a furious storm came up on the lake, so that the waves swept over the boat. But Jesus was sleeping.25 The disciples went and woke him, saying, “Lord, save us! We’re going to drown!”

26 He replied, “You of little faith, why are you so afraid?” Then he got up and rebuked the winds and the waves, and it was completely calm.

27 The men were amazed and asked, “What kind of man is this? Even the winds and the waves obey him!”

In the month of July I partipate in my church's Drama Time for Vbs. This year we are doing Life of Christ. Today at practice we the calming of the storm a little ironic to the massive storm I now hear out side my window. I love being a part of this retelling of bible stories because I learn more about the story myself. I am not on stage much but I rather be that way because I have always been a watcher than a doer. 

A about an hour ago a huge storm hit the area where I live. While some were freaking out; I was enjoying listening to the storm because I do not fear it much anymore. I am not saying I do not have fear. This storm did not scare me. 

The director of show, a woman I respect and look up to,  constantly reminds us that Jesus is speaking to him us as well as the audience and displences he had. 

God calms all the storms from the weather to our lives.  My thoughts are slightly scattered because I am tires tonight.
