MEN MARVELED

Matthew 8:27 (NKJV) 27 So the men marveled, saying, "Who can this be, that even the winds and the sea obey Him?"
   There is a presence about some people that surprises us, arrogance, self-centered, loving and humble to name a few. The emotion we experience when contacting these individuals is some times infuriating and others a blessing. A little girl reached to grab her daddies hand on halloween, "that man scared me" she said. Reaching down and picking up his daughter, he realized she was trembling, "its ok honey he wont hurt you," he encouraged, "I know daddy I am safe with you," she cried.
  When exposed to real danger we react in many ways, fear is usually the motive behind our action and often we find something within us that is a surprise. When Jesus spoke to the elements that was the storm in their lives, surprise and astonishment surfaced, where fear had been, the emotion of amazement surfaced. The fear of death left with the storm.
    Is there fear in your life, won't you let Jesus speak to that storm today, He will calm your fears and give you a sense of marvel. Simply trust everything to Him, tell your Father your afraid.
Heavenly Father help us to look to You when we fear, help us to trust You when we can't see, help us know your will when life is so confusing. May all our thoughts trust all You wish to do in our lives. Amen
