If your life is a straight line, then you need to think about what you do, the purpose and your target. Sometimes you usually reach a point where you have a lot of sentiments.
That's true! You hate your job, you are not performing well in class, your friends are not there for you. The sentiments become more painful where even the person you treasure lets you down.

As Jesus was asleep, a violent squall with waves turned out. The disciples got terrified and confused. They went to wake up Jesus who was sleeping. He was in a stern. Jesus woke up and rebuked the winds.
He simply said:
- "Quiet! Be still!"
The whole storm ceased and there was a great calm. He turned to them and asked one simple question.
- "Why are terrified ? Do you not yet have faith ?"
