Jesus showed his outrageous power when he calmed a storm just by saying, “Stop!”

Key Points:

  • The disciples were scared. Their boat was about to sink! They remembered Jesus was on the boat, and he knew just what to do.
  • Jesus stopped the storm. Jesus was so powerful and could do amazing and outrageous things. So what did he do? He made the storm stop by speaking to it!
  • Jesus can help us with scary things. Jesus is so outrageously strong and powerful that even the wind and waves do what he says. Jesus can use his power to help us in our lives, too.
  • Put your trust in Jesus because he will help you when you’re scared just like he helped the disciples that day on the boat.

Memory Verse:

Luke 8:25b When he gives a command, even the wind and waves obey him!
