Jesus, Master of the Storm

The more fear we have, the less faith we have. The less fear we have, the more faith we have. That being the case, it only makes sense that we would strive to have a great faith. Nobody wants fear to rule over them.

But what happens when the thing in which your faith rests shows signs of faltering? It creates fear. Sometimes fear then is a good thing – if your faith is in something that can’t withstand the difficulties of life. Sometimes it is this fear that shakes us loose from having faith in the wrong things. So we ought to examine our fears.

As we take a closer look we find that faith in Jesus is the counter to fear. He reveals himself as the Master over the storm, the Master in the storm, and the Master that endures the storm.
