(Jesus) said to them, "Why
are you afraid! Have you still no faith? " (Mark
4:40)
Trusting in Jesus takes a great deal of faith.
After all, we cannot see him or meet him physically.
But we can meet him in the Scriptures and in
prayer. Jesus wants to walk with us through every
moment of our life, but we need to invite him
in so that fear goes away. Offer up a fear of
yours to Jesus. Put faith in Jesus in the place
of fear.
Christ, our help, I wish I could have met you
in person, but then I wonder if I would have
doubted you like the disciples did. Please help
me to trust that with you in my life, I have
no need to fear.
For more: Read Mark 4:35-41 to get the whole
story on how the disciples doubted Jesus.
