Luke 8:22-25

One day Jesus and his followers got into a boat. He said to them, “Come with me across the lake.” And so they started across. 23. While they were sailing, Jesus slept. A big storm blew across the lake, and the boat began to fill with water. They were in danger. 24. The followers went to Jesus and woke him. They said, “Master! Master! We will drown!” Jesus got up. He gave a command to the wind and the waves. The wind stopped, and the lake became calm. 25. He said to his followers, “Where is your faith?” They were afraid and amazed. They said to each other, “What kind of man is this? He commands the wind and the water, and they obey him.”

Luke 8:26-39

Jesus and his followers sailed on across the lake. They sailed to the area where the Gerasene people live, across from Galilee. 27. When Jesus got out of the boat, a man from that town came to him. This man had demons inside him. For a long time he had worn no clothes. He did not live in a house but in the caves where the dead are buried. 28. The demon inside the man had often seized him, and he had been put in jail with his hands and feet in chains. But he would always break the chains. The demon inside him would force him to go out to the places where no one lived. Jesus commanded the evil spirit to come out of the man. When the man saw Jesus, he fell down before him, shouting loudly, “What do you want with me, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? Please, don’t punish me!” 29. The demon inside the man had often seized him, and he had been put in jail with his hands and feet in chains. But he would always break the chains. The demon inside him would force him to go out to the places where no one lived. Jesus commanded the evil spirit to come out of the man. When the man saw Jesus, he fell down before him, shouting loudly, “What do you want with me, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? Please, don’t punish me!” 30. Jesus asked him, “What is your name?” The man answered, “Legion.” (He said his name was “Legion” because many demons had gone into him.) 31. The demons begged Jesus not to send them into the bottomless pit. 32. On that hill there was a big herd of pigs eating. The demons begged Jesus to allow them to go into the pigs. So he allowed them to do this. 33. Then the demons came out of the man and went into the pigs. The herd of pigs ran down the hill into the lake, and all were drowned. 34. The men who were caring for the pigs ran away and told the story in the fields and in the town. 35. People went out to see what had happened. They came to Jesus and found the man sitting there at the feet of Jesus. The man had clothes on and was in his right mind again; the demons were gone. This made the people afraid. 36. The men who saw these things happen told the others all about how Jesus made the man well. 37. All those who lived in the area around Gerasa asked Jesus to go away because they were afraid. So Jesus got into the boat to go back to Galilee. 38. The man he had healed begged to go with him. But Jesus sent him away, saying, 39. “Go back home and tell people what God did for you.” So the man went all over town telling what Jesus had done for him.

Psalms 34:17

Pray to the LORD, and he will hear you. He will save you from all your troubles.

Matthew 28:20

Teach them to obey everything that I have told you to do. You can be sure that I will be with you always. I will continue with you until the end of time.”
