"Peace, be Still," June 24th Worship

"Do you not care that we are perishing?" The disciples' question resonates with anyone who has ever wondered if there is anyone who truly, personally cares about the struggles, troubles, and fears of our lives. When we face a stormy time of life, it can seem that no one cares.  Today Jesus answers the disciples with great compassion and power. With the wind howling, the boat taking on water, and the disciples afraid for their lives, Jesus speaks. "Peace, be still," He says to the wind and the waves.  All of nature must follow His command. The wind ceased.  There was a great calm.  Today His voice can reach the deepest part of our mind and spirit as we hear Jesus tell us “Peace, be still.”
