Abba,
We do not know what the weather was immediately after You spoke the calm of the sea and wind, calming the storm completely. We only know You could create complete sunshine or gradually dismissing the effects of the storm. By Your Word either is entirely possible with You.;
With All things under Your feet, we place all our cares and concerns. Resting in You. With faith Hope and Love encompassing all we ask You about in our continuing prayer conversations.
With Jesus we draw near to You. Blessed be the Love of Jesus. Amen.
