Matthew 8:23-27

\n

Then he got into the boat and his disciples followed him. Suddenly a furious storm came up on the lake, so that the waves swept over the boat. But Jesus was sleeping.

\n

The disciples went and woke him, saying, \u201cLord, save us! We\u2019re going to drown!\u201d He replied, \u201cYou of little faith, why are you so afraid?\u201d

\n

\n

Then he got up and rebuked the winds and the waves, and it was completely calm. The men were amazed and asked, \u201cWhat kind of man is this? Even the winds and the waves obey him!\u201d

Mark 4:35-41

\n

That day when evening came, he said to his disciples, "Let us go over to the other side." Leaving the crowd behind, they took him along, just as he was, in the boat.

\n

There were also other boats with him.

A furious squall came up, and the waves broke over the boat, so that it was nearly swamped. \xa0Jesus was in the stern, sleeping on a cushion. The disciples woke him and said to him, "Teacher, don't you care if we drown?"

He got up, rebuked the wind and said to the waves, "Quiet! Be still!" Then the wind died down and it was completely calm. He said to his disciples, "Why are you so afraid? Do you still have no faith?"

\n

They were terrified and asked each other, "Who is this? Even the wind and the waves obey him!"

Ecclesiastes 4:9-12

\n

Two are better than one, because they have a good return for their labor: If either of them falls down, one can help the other up. But pity anyone who falls and has no one to help them up.

Also, if two lie down together, they will keep warm. But how can one keep warm alone? Though one may be overpowered, two can defend themselves. A cord of three strands is not quickly broken.
