Jesus calms the storm, Matthew 8.
“Storms are real, but so is Jesus. Depression. Anxiety. Low mood. Feelings of emptiness. There is no stigma for these with God. The passage we’ve just read allows us to acknowledge that storms are real, so we can stop hiding. But the disciples here exhaust their human effort and go to Jesus for help. Storms are real, and they will come if they aren’t here already, but knowing the real presence of Jesus in your storms will bring hope like nothing else.” ~ Neil Forsythe, Lead Pastor
