Fear blocks Faith from coming out…..
A furious storm came up, and the waves broke over the boat, so that it was nearly swamped. I saw giant waves about hundred times my height and they laughed at me. I didn’t know what to do. The wind was so strong and was telling me my failures. I tried to move but I couldn’t. I was so afraid. I was in danger. But I saw Him in the stern, sleeping on the cushion. “Lord, don’t you care if we drown?” I shouted, trying to wake Him up. And I did it. He got up, rebuked the wind and said to the waves, “Quiet! Be still!” then the wind died down and it was completely calm. He said to me, “Why are you so afraid? Do you still have no faith?” (Mark 4:35ff) “Did I not tell you that if you believed, you would see the glory of God?”(John 11:40) “But Lord”, I said, “The giant waves and the strong winds remind me of my failures. I don’t know what to do.” But He looked at me with love and His replied awakened me, “Do not listen to them! Just listen to me (John 10:27).
