Jesus Christ: his power by ric gustafson
Mark 4:41 says that even wind and sea obey him. Psalm 29 talks about thunderstorms and that the God of glory thunders. When Jesus came into the world, all nature bowed to his authority. He commands the wind and it obeys. When the disciples witnessed this, they wondered and then they worshiped. Water obeys and became solid so Jesus could walk on it.
We have a choice, we can worship Jesus or curse and reject him. When storms in life come, we have two choices. We can curse the one who rules the winds and the waves or we can praise Jesus and believe that there is a good purpose behind what just happened to us. Job trusted and praised God even in the worst of times. We should do the same.
