Save Us Lord!

Save us, Lord, we are going down!
Mt.8:25

The disciples, experienced fishermen, succumbed to fear of the storm sinking their boat. Their prayer is simple and direct... "Save us Lord, we are going down!"

Short prayers are the best. There is honesty in a short prayer that can get lost in a long one. And, a short prayer is enough for Jesus. He rebukes the wind and waves, the storm disappears. 

Jesus is either Lord of all, or not at all. Nothing I face today will be a surprise to Jesus. I simply keep my eyes on him, in faith, and all will be well.

Jesus, even the winds and waves obey you. I place my trust in you.
Saint Peter who walked on the water, pray for me.
