10 July 2009 Nightmares
We are very excited in our household awaiting next Wednesday when wecan go and see the next Harry Potter movie. My youngest daughter however has debated whether or not to go and decided it is toofrightening for her. She is still at the stage where monsters and creatures from other planets can give her nightmares.
I wonder what gives you nightmares, change of job? Money worries? Ill health?The future, moving to the next stage in life? These are our monsters aren't they and sadly unlike the Harry Potter demons these are veryreal.
When the disciples feared the storm in the boat Jesus rebuked them
"Why are you so frightened? How little faith you have. " and sometimes weneed to rebuke ourselves. Jesus promises that he will be with us throughout any storm and that he will keep us safe in his arms, lifemay be difficult, indeed it may be awful, but all will pass and Jesus will remain always at our side, always watching over us.
"Why are you so frightened?" Jesus answered"How little faith you have!" Thenhe got up and ordered the winds and the waves to stop and there was a great calm."
Matthew 8 vs 26
