This post is short and sweet. Today marks day nineteen of #lighttheworld. "Jesus Calmed the Storm and So Can You"
Jesus understood that life’s storms can take many shapes. Some storms rain down from the sky; other tempests come from within. The Master can calm all storms. When we follow His example, we can be a light in the lives of those going through turbulent times.
Today's scripture is found in Mark 4:37-40 and it is found in the following;
“37 And there arose a great storm of wind, and the waves beat into the ship, so that it was now full.
38 And he was in the hinder part of the ship, asleep on a pillow: and they awake him, and say unto him, Master, carest thou not that we perish?
39 And he arose, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea, Peace, be still. And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm.
40 And he said unto them, Why are ye so fearful? how is it that ye have no faith?”
I encourage you to think about the following questions;
"Do you have a seventy two hour/two to three days survivual pack for when a bad natural disaster comes?"
"Are you prepared?" "Are you going to teach your neighbour how to be prepared right now instead later?"
"In what ways can you make sure that you are prepared?"
I really like the video from a link below and I would like you to watch it in your own time because it shows that when there is more helpers/more hands equals less work.

I like the Image above because I think it goes well with this post. If you can not see the Image above, it says "Disaster gave me two things; a moment to react and a decision to over. - Michael Dooley."
