"And there arose a fierce gale of wind, and the waves were breaking over the boat so much that the boat was already filling up. Jesus Himself was in the stern, asleep on the cushion; and they woke Him and said to Him, 'Teacher, do You not care that we are perishing?' And He got up and rebuked the wind and said to the sea, 'Hush, be still.' And the wind died down and it became perfectly calm."

Mark 4:37-39 (NASB)

Jesus speaks the same words to all the storms in our lives as we just turn to Him. He says, "Hush, be still." He quiets our hearts, no matter what difficulty we're facing. (Isaiah 32:17, "And the work of righteousness will be peace, and the service of righteousness, quietness and confidence forever.") Praise the Lord!
