some verses from this morning

Psalm 147
3 He heals the brokenhearted
  and bandages their wounds.

dan note: anybody brokenhearted out there?


10 He takes no pleasure in the strength of a horse
  or in human might.
11 No, the LORD's delight is in those who fear him,
  those who put their hope in his unfailing love.

dan note: maybe we should remember this during this present political season?


Mark 4
35 As evening came, Jesus said to his disciples, "Let's cross to the other side of the lake." 36 So they took Jesus in the boat and started out, leaving the crowds behind (although other boats followed). 37 But soon a fierce storm came up. High waves were breaking into the boat, and it began to fill with water.

  38 Jesus was sleeping at the back of the boat with his head on a cushion. The disciples woke him up, shouting, "Teacher, don't you care that we're going to drown?"

  39 When Jesus woke up, he rebuked the wind and said to the waves, "Silence! Be still!" Suddenly the wind stopped, and there was a great calm. 40 Then he asked them, "Why are you afraid? Do you still have no faith?"

  41 The disciples were absolutely terrified. "Who is this man?" they asked each other. "Even the wind and waves obey him!"

dan note: do we REALLY trust Him?
And do we know that the faith that got us to where we are isn't the faith that'll keep us there?
And if we REALLY trusted Him, what would out lives look like?
