========================
Luke 8:22-25
========================
16“No one lights a lamp and
hides it in a clay jar or puts it under a bed. Instead, they put it on a stand,
so that those who come in can see the light.
17For there is nothing hidden
that will not be disclosed, and nothing concealed that will not be known or
brought out into the open.

22One day Jesus said to his
disciples, “Let us go over to the other side of the lake.” So they got into a
boat and set out.
23As they sailed, he fell
asleep. A squall came down on the lake, so that the boat was being swamped, and
they were in great danger.
24The disciples went and woke
him, saying, “Master, Master, we’re going to drown!” He got up and rebuked the
wind and the raging waters; the storm subsided, and all was calm.
25“Where is your faith?” he
asked his disciples. In fear and amazement they asked one another, “Who is
this? He commands even the winds and the water, and they obey him.”
