There's a Storm: Luke 8:25

The disciples are in the boat.  The wind is howling, the waves are crashing, Jesus is sleeping.

They trust Jesus.  They've left their homes, their livelihoods, their past selves behind.  They are following him.  Isn't that trust?

But wind, waves, wet, cold. And sleeping.

If they'd really trusted him, they'd have let him sleep.

Storms are where we get the chance to test our trust.

Thank you God for storms?  Maybe not.

But definitely thank you for Jesus, who even in his "sleep" is trustworthy.
