Storm on the Sea of Galilee
12 X 16 - acrylic on birch panel
You of little faith, why are you so afraid? Then he got up and rebuked the winds and the waves, and it was completely calm. --Matthew 8:26
Jesus was exhausted from teaching the crowds. It was suggested that they find a quiet place across the Sea of Galilee to rest. During the journey, Jesus fell asleep and while He slept a terrible storm came up. The Apostles thought they'd all drown --- they woke Jesus up --- He stood up and calmed the Sea --- the men wondered, who is this that even the wind and the water obey His command?
Wake-up the Jesus within you, He will calm your storms.
Calm Me, Lord by Margaret Rizza on You Tube. Words by Davis Adam
Calm me, Lord, as you calmed the storm; still me, Lord, keep me from harm.
Let all the tumult within me cease, enfold me, Lord, in your peace.
