Faith

"The disciples went and woke him, saying, “Lord, save us! We’re going to drown!” He replied, “You of little faith, why are you so afraid?” Then he got up and rebuked the winds and the waves, and it was completely calm."    (Matthew 8:25-26)



A fascinating thing happened the other...week. The sermon began with a question pertaining to the old game "Button, Button, Who's Got the Button". Shortly after that I started seeing buttons pop up every where. I would find one on my desk, on a dresser, on the ground. Every where I went I was seeing buttons that I have never seen before. I have a lot of buttons in my sewing, but these are buttons that no one claims and they are in places that no one would put them. If someone looses a button, they will either tell me or put the button on my bedroom dresser. Buttons were popping up all over. Then I remembered the sermon and asked my husband what the sermon was about that week. The sermon was about God being in control. He is the one who holds the button in our lives. Well as these buttons continued to show up, I wondered what God was trying to tell me. It was the combination of three people who helped me to understand that God wanted me to stop being so worried about my son and one of my daughters. He was in control and everything was as it was suppose to be because HE HAD THE BUTTON.

Isn't He wonderful?
