Hidey ho, dear friends! I hope your weekend is going swimmingly well. (Yes, speaking of Jesus walking on water this week, the pun here is totally intentional.)
Here are a few links for your enrichment.
Psalm 46:10 (‘Be still and know…’)
Thanks so much for tuning in! Until next time…
Grace + Godspeed,
Jonas
I loved this message. You're right that the focus with this scripture is often "you should have more faith", and it always bothers me.
This is definitely an "I AM" moment, and as John 1 shows us, He was there at creation, brooding over the waters as the Wind / Breath of God, at the beginning of creation. He stilled the waters for the disciples on the boat, still waters like in your photo.
For me, like He did for Peter in that moment, He is saying "keep your eyes on me, I can do ALL things, even enable you to walk on water if necessary". "Forget about all that water, all that chaos, just focus on me, be stilled and trust me".
Be blessed in your chaotic moments, keep your eyes on him my friend.
