Peace, Be Still

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Sep 18, 2024

A storm arose on the sea and the disciples thought they were going to die. In the storms of life, Jesus speaks into our circumstances. He is working to either calm the storm or quiet our heart. When we trust in Him, we find peace.

The lesson from these parables is that Jesus DOES give up on some people, and that only seeing it in this way is there any good news. If you think the message of these stories is that God never gives up on anyone, I suggest you have gotten it backwards.
