Matthews 8: 23-26

Sometimes, just after deciding to follow Jesus, things seem to get worst and God seems to be sleeping...

“ And when he was entered into a ship, his disciples followed him.”
“And, behold, there arose a great tempest in the sea, insomuch that the ship was covered with the waves: but he was asleep.”


You starts praying, praying and praying... and when you get to your "limit"... Jesus comes to you, and say you could have done more (had more faith), before calling Him, and it's true... We often think we have no power to rebuke evil, I don't know why, but we must separate when we really need to use our dependence on the Lord, and when we don't need, I mean, we can do it in the name of Jesus, by ourselves, by the power He gave to us.

“And his disciples came to {him}, and awoke him, saying, Lord, save us: we perish.”
“And he saith unto them, Why are ye fearful, O ye of little faith? Then he arose, and rebuked the winds and the sea; and there was a great calm.”


We unfortunatly tend to look to difficulties, instead of looking to solutions.
Praise the Lord He is always there to support us in any situation.
