The founder of a privately owned business often leaves the running of the enterprise to their son or sons. In the 1960’s, Ennis and Sons Sunoco service station, was a well-respected business in the small neighborhood of Mycenae, NY.
Both God the Father and God the Son are in the stilling of seas ministry. Troubled souls turn to them and enter the haven of rest.
“He caused the storm to be still, So that the waves of the sea were hushed. Then they were glad because they were quiet, So He guided them to their desired haven (Psalm 107:29-30 NAS).”
Jesus calms the sea; I can trust Him to calm me…
“When He got into the boat, His disciples followed Him. And behold, there arose a great storm on the sea, so that the boat was being covered with the waves; but Jesus Himself was asleep. And they came to Him and woke Him, saying, “Save us, Lord; we are perishing!” He said to them, “Why are you afraid, you men of little faith?” Then He got up and rebuked the winds and the sea, and it became perfectly calm. The men were amazed, and said, “What kind of a man is this, that even the winds and the sea obey Him (Matthew 8:23-27 NAS)?”
I love it when God does that, a ‘Can you hear me now?’ experience!

These are the same verses I read this morning. Perhaps, God is trying to tell me something? Great, I’m listening now that I read it again.
