Worship Theme: We Have Every Reason To Trust The One Who Has Power Over The Storm.
We have seen that faith should give evidence of itself in life. But sometimes evidence outside of ourselves and our control challenges faith. The fact that Christ lives and lives in us, the fact that he rules all things for our good, is no guarantee that we will never face fear and disaster. Quite the contrary, he has promised us that we will have an abundance of troubles in this life. This Sunday's reading shows us one particular aspect of fruit of faith: We trust in him when all the outward evidence argues against trust in him.
