Focus

I will have a TON of new things to post. I just got a new computer because SOMEONE spilled their chocolate milk on my other one (no it wasn't Scotty). So all of my info is being transferred over, including my pictures. For now I will leave you with this focus that Scotty and I taught to our Bible study this week:
In Matthew 8 Jesus and His disciples get on a boat together. A large tempest (huge windstorm- think Castaway) overtakes the waters. The disciples are frightened to death and they search for Jesus, who is found to be asleep on the ship. They panic saying "Save us we are perishing!!" (paraphrased) Jesus responds with "O Ye of little faith" and with a WORD calms the storm. They marvel at Him saying "Who is this that even the wind and the sea obey Him?!"
God is never surprised by our circumstances. He led the disciples onto the boat, surely He would protect them there. He knows our circumstances and He is in control of them. With a word He can speak anything into existence. Our Creator is in control of NATURE. How much more is He in charge of our small problems? This week let us all acknowledge His presence and Divine power over even the largest temptests in our own lives. God Bless you all. xoxo-KK
