Praise

Great God of Creation, Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, we praise Your Holy name. Lord Jesus, You were not afraid of the wind or the sea, for You commanded them with a word. Though we tend to fear, like Your disciples in the boat, You command us to believe, have faith, put our trust in You, and not fear. In You is a great calm for even the wind and the sea obey You. We, too, are at Your command. Speak, Lord, and we will hear and heed. Amen.
