About this Episode

Passage:
45 Immediately he made his disciples get into the boat and go ahead of him to the other side, to Bethsaida, while he dismissed the crowd. 46 After he said good-bye to them, he went away to the mountain to pray. 47 Well into the night, the boat was in the middle of the sea, and he was alone on the land. 48 He saw them straining at the oars, because the wind was against them. Very early in the morning he came toward them walking on the sea and wanted to pass by them. 49 When they saw him walking on the sea, they thought it was a ghost and cried out, 50 because they all saw him and were terrified. Immediately he spoke with them and said,“Have courage! It is I. Don’t be afraid.” 51 Then he got into the boat with them, and the wind ceased. They were completely astounded, 52 because they had not understood about the loaves. Instead, their hearts were hardened.

Wind and the Waves by Josh Shook, Sarah Reeves, and Steven Shook

Lyrics:
When I'm up when I'm down
You're steady
When I'm stuck in the clouds
And it's heavy
When my knees hit the ground
You will carry me

You're never shocked never scared of my questions
You don't leave me alone in the trenches
I am safe in Your arms in Your presence

If You say be still
Jesus I will
I'm standing with the Prince of Peace
If You tell my soul
Trust and let go
I'll let You calm the storm in me

Just like the wind and the waves
I will obey
Just like the wind and the waves
I will obey

I won't lean on my own understanding
I'll believe in Your word when I can't see
As for me and this house and my family
We will trust You Lord

If You say be still
Jesus I will
I'm standing with the Prince of Peace
If You tell my soul
Trust and let go
I'll let You calm the storm in me

Just like the wind and the waves
I will obey
Just like the wind and the waves
I will obey

Sometimes I'm scared I admit it
But this boat ain't sinkin' with You in it
It's not the end You're not finished
You're not finished yet
It feels like I'm finally living
You hold the peace I've been missing
Now this gift it just won't stop giving
It keeps on giving and giving and giving

Sometimes I'm scared I admit it
But this boat ain't sinkin' with You in it
It's not the end You're not finished
You're not finished yet
It feels like I'm finally living
You hold the peace I've been missing
Now this gift it just won't stop giving
It keeps on giving and giving and giving

If You say be still
Jesus I will
I'm standing with the Prince of Peace
If You tell my soul
Trust and let go
I'll let You calm the storm in me

If You say be still
Jesus I will
I'm standing with the Prince of Peace
If You tell my soul
Trust and let go
I'll let You calm the storm in me

Just like the wind and the waves
I will obey
Just like the wind and the waves
I will obey

Just like the wind and the waves
I will obey
Just like the wind and the waves
I will obey

Prayer:
Mercifully regard, O Lord, the prayers of your family, and while we submit ourselves to you with our whole heart, do you prosper, support and encompass us; that, relying on you as our guide, we may be entangled in no evil and replenished with all good; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
