| Jesus Calms the Storm |
We are going to do a series of 4 lessons on this topic
Lessons come from Tiny Talks, Vol. 10
by Lee Ann Setzer
Opening Prayer: By Invitation
Scripture: Mark 4:39
Visual Aid: Jesus Calms the Sea (Gospel Art Book, pg.
40)
Lesson: One evening, Jesus and His disciples set
out across the Sea of Galilee in a boat. Jesus went to sleep while His
disciples sailed the ship. He was still sleeping when a great storm blew up. In
the wind and the waves and the darkness, the disciples were afraid. They woke
Jesus up in a panic. He stood and told the sea, “Peace, be still.” The wind
calmed down, and suddenly the storm ended. The disciples, who didn’t yet
understand that Jesus was the Son of God, were amazed at this miracle (see Mark4:35– 41).
Sometimes
we get “stormy” inside: angry, or frightened, or worried, or discouraged. Just
as He did with the Sea of Galilee, Jesus can calm an upset heart or mind if we
let Him bring us the peace He promises.
Thought Question: How
have you felt peace through the gospel of Jesus Christ?
Challenge: Over
the next week, whenever something happens that causes you to feel “stormy”
inside, stop, take a deep breath and say a prayer for peace. Share your experiences next week.
