Scripture

Luke 8

Jesus Calms the Storm

22 One day Jesus said to his disciples, “Let’s cross to the other side of the lake.” So they got into a boat and started out. 23 As they sailed across, Jesus settled down for a nap. But soon a fierce storm came down on the lake. The boat was filling with water, and they were in real danger.
24 The disciples went and woke him up, shouting, “Master, Master, we’re going to drown!”

When Jesus woke up, he rebuked the wind and the raging waves. Suddenly the storm stopped and all was calm. 25 Then he asked them, “Where is your faith?”
The disciples were terrified and amazed. “Who is this man?” they asked each other. “When he gives a command, even the wind and waves obey him!”

Observation

It was a good question for Jesus to ask His disciples and it is a good question for Him to ask us today “Where is your faith?”

The Christian life may be easy to live when everything is sailing smoothly along, but what happens when storms come into our lives? Is our faith something that is evident to everyone around us? Life is not always going to go our way sometimes maybe even most of the time life is a struggle. It is so important to have your faith and my faith firmly grounded in Jesus so when the storms come He will be our anchor!

Are you in the middle of any storms? Where is your faith? I hope it is firmly planted on the Lord Jesus Christ.

Application

Jesus is my anchor during every storm.

Prayer

Heavenly Father, help me to keep my eyes on You in the midst of the storms. Life is tough, but You have given us the victory. Give me strength for today. Help me rely on You and You alone! Amen
