Doug and Maddie Kennedy



Good morning. Jesus sent his disciples ahead of him across the lake that evening. As soon as it was completely dark and they were still in the middle of the sea a huge storm came. They were terrified. And if that were not bad enough they suddenly see what they assume is a ghost wafting across the water towards them. Jesus calls out to them “Do not be afraid. I AM.”



What is it that strikes terror in your heart. The roar of a tornado. The injury of your child. The desperate illness of a parent. Whatever it is that causes you fear, Jesus has one thing to say to you, “Do not be afraid. I AM.”



This is Doug and Maddie Kennedy of Central United Methodist Church. When fear strikes in your life whatever the cause. Turn to Jesus. He doesn't promise a life of smooth sailing, but he does promise to be with you always, and to calm the storm in your soul. He calls out “Do not be afraid. I AM.”
