Who is Jesus #40 (Savior Cont.)

"Lord, save us!" - a fervent cry from the disciples to Jesus who was asleep in the bottom of the boat (Matthew 8:23-27). Once they saw their desperate plight, they knew not only that they needed saving, but what they needed saving from - the sea, the wind, the elements. Fortunately, for them, the Savior was close at hand. Their predicament became crystal clear.
I wonder if ours/mine has. Once I realize my desperate plight - my sinful ways - then, and only then, can I reach out to the Savior for salvation. Then I see the man on the cross as the one and only Savior - through Him and none other can I calm the storm of sin in my life. He responds to my cry of, "Lord, save me!"

Be Strong and Courageous,

L.T.
