That day when evening came, he said to his disciples, \u201cLet us go over to the other side.\u201d Leaving the crowd behind, they took him along, just as he was, in the boat. 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. Jesus was in the stern, sleeping on a cushion. The disciples woke him and said to him, \u201cTeacher, don\u2019t you care if we drown?\u201d He got up, rebuked the wind and said to the waves, \u201cQuiet! Be still!\u201d Then the wind died down and it was completely calm.    <\/em>Mark 4:35-39<\/p>\n\n\n\n

the Lord appeared to him at night and said: \u201cI have heard your prayer and have chosen this place for myself as a temple for sacrifices. \u201cWhen I shut up the heavens so that there is no rain, or command locusts to devour the land or send a plague among my people, if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land. Now my eyes will be open and my ears attentive to the prayers offered in this place. I have chosen and consecrated this temple so that my Name may be there forever. My eyes and my heart will always be there.   <\/em>2 Chronicles 7:12-16<\/p>\n\n\n\n
