STORM STILLER
Lately i have been praying so much about my relationship. My best friend Chocolate and I have what I am tempted to call an almost perfect relationship, we haven't had a fight or a quarrel since the first day we met, no single issue at all, we do everything together, agree on everything, our goals and visions align effortlessly together like a word puzzle, our parents love and accepts us like crazy, and to be very honest with you it was starting to bother me, because I know it cannot be all bread and butter... ' it was', until the Lord showed me a scripture tonight, something powerful i would like to share with someone else reading this piece.
Mark chaper 4 verse number 35-41(NIV);
"That day when evening came, he said to his disciples, “Let us go over to the other side.”
Leaving the crowd behind, they took him along, just as he was, in the boat. There were also other boats with him.
A furious storm came up, and the waves broke over the boat, so that it was nearly drowning. Jesus was in the stern, sleeping on a cushion.
The disciples woke him and said to him, “Teacher, don’t you care if we drown?”
He got up, rebuked the wind and said to the waves, “Quiet! Be still!”
Then the wind died down and it was completely calm.
He said to his disciples, “Why are you so afraid? Do you have no faith?”
They were terrified and asked each other, “Who is this? Even the wind and the waves obey him!”
Hmmm, Jesus knew there was going to be a storm the moment He got on that boat. I was wondering why He didn't command the storm not to come, since He knew it would trouble them.
