We Are Scared (Palm Sunday) - Matthew 14:22-33 Pain / Promise: We are scared / Jesus comforts us

There is much to be afraid of and fear in this world. We fear the storms and waves of this world. We know that while we have trust in Jesus, there is no promise that we will not suffer in this world. There is pain, suffering, and things that can happen to us that we fear. We often rely on ourselves to save us, but our own bravery or ability is not what saves us. In fact it is not enough to save us from the storms and waves of life. Jesus alone saves us. He saves us from sin, death, the devil, and all that we fear in this world. Just as Jesus was with the disciples and watching out for them, we know he is always with us, even if our worst fears come to fruition. We do not have to fear, because Jesus has saved us from this world, he is with us, and he brings us comfort and peace when we fear, and takes our hand to save us from this world.
