Psalm 46
1 God is our refuge and strength,
a very present[a] help in trouble.
2 Therefore we will not fear, though the earth should change,
though the mountains shake in the heart of the sea;
3 though its waters roar and foam,
though the mountains tremble with its tumult.Selah
4 There is a river whose streams make glad the city of God,
the holy habitation of the Most High.
5 God is in the midst of the city;[b] it shall not be moved;
God will help it when the morning dawns.
6 The nations are in an uproar, the kingdoms totter;
he utters his voice, the earth melts.
7 The Lord of hosts is with us;
the God of Jacob is our refuge.
8 Come, behold the works of the Lord;
see what desolations he has brought on the earth.
9 He makes wars cease to the end of the earth;
he breaks the bow, and shatters the spear;
he burns the shields with fire.
10 “Be still, and know that I am God!
I am exalted among the nations,
I am exalted in the earth.”
11 The Lord of hosts is with us;
the God of Jacob is our refuge.
Mark 4:35-41
35 On that day, when evening had come, he said to them, “Let us go across to the other side.” 36 And leaving the crowd behind, they took him with them in the boat, just as he was. Other boats were with him. 37 A great windstorm arose, and the waves beat into the boat, so that the boat was already being swamped. 38 But he was in the stern, asleep on the cushion; and they woke him up and said to him, “Teacher, do you not care that we are perishing?” 39 He woke up and rebuked the wind, and said to the sea, “Peace! Be still!” Then the wind ceased, and there was a dead calm. 40 He said to them, “Why are you afraid? Have you still no faith?” 41 And they were filled with great awe and said to one another, “Who then is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?”
Awesome job, all of you!! Speaking only for myself, I needed this! Thank you so much. We all need to keep the FAITH! God is among us.
You’re welcome! I will pass along your kind words. Glad we could be a source of light and hope. Yes, Keep the Faith, God is with us! Peace to you. -Jessica Swick, Social Media Manager
Thanks I needed this
You’re welcome! Peace!
This was fantastic, tremendous, excellent. So timely and well done. The scripture reading with the music in the background was moving. Pastor Mike was great! The flow was perfect. I would never guess this was an early attempt at developing an online service. The trio gave a moving performance as well.
I truely needed this. I am tired of social distancing already, but this gave me some needed connection with St. Paul’s and our Pastor.
Thank you and keep up the GREAT work. 😊 I loved it!
You’re Welcome! Church at Home until we can worship together again. Peace!
This was a very timely message. When the waters are rough God is with us.
I’m learning real quick how social media can keep us close.
thanks
You’re welcome! Yes, technology will keep us connected until we can be together again!
Peace!
Thank you for this service. Every part was meaningful and well done. I am sharing this with many of my friends who are looking for a little light during this tough time. What a great way to reach others who might not be so willing to come to church with you, but are hungry for some inspirational words right now while we are all keeping our distance. Even though we cannot gather, we can still share our message with others. Great job!
You’re welcome! Glad you enjoyed it. We will stay connected in prayer until we can worship together again in person! Peace.
