God's authority

You rule over the surging sea: When its waves rise up, it’s you who makes them still. ~ Psalm 89:9 (CEB)

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. ~ Luke 8:24 (NLT)

KEY IDEA:
God has authority over even the weather.
PRAYER:
Lord, you are powerful. I know that. But I still worry. I know that I shouldn't, but I keep hearing about crazy weather events, climate change, and rising sea levels. All that uncertainty makes me afraid. Help me to relax in the knowledge that you have the power to calm the storms and raging waves. We're not going to drown because I am trusting you to take charge. Amen.
