A man who had just
got married was returning home with his wife . They were crossing a lake in a
boat, when suddenly a great storm arose. The man was a warrior, but the woman
became very much afraid because it seemed hopeless since the boat was small and
it seemed that any moment they were going to be drowned. But the man remained
silent and was at peace , calm and quiet, as if nothing was happening.
The woman was
terrified and trembling and asked, “Are you not afraid ?”. This may be our last
moment of life! Only some miracle can
save us; otherwise death is certain.
The man laughed and
took the sword out of its sheath. The woman was even more puzzled: What was he
going to do? Then he brought the naked sword close to the woman’s
neck almost touching it.
He said, “Are you
afraid ?”
She started to
laugh and said,”Why should I be afraid? If the sword is in your hands, why I
should be afraid? I know you love me.”
“He put the sword
back and said, You have got the answer “. I know God Loves us , and the storm
is in His hands.
