C. Application
1. Why are you afraid? What are you really afraid of? Think of the specific things that can go wrong in
that situation.
_I’m afraid of not trying my best and causing regretful feelings. Sometimes due to these opinions toward
myself, it may cause extra tension and nervousness on me which may cause situations like i originally can do
well but because of this factor i cannot do what i expect. For example, doing exam papers, due to the fact I'm
too over nervous, I may have more careless mistakes.
2. Is it easier for you to face the storms in life after knowing that Jesus calmed the storm?
_Much easier than before because after knowing Jesus' power, I have more faith in Jesus and believe I will
be supported by Jesus when I am facing the situation I am afraid of.
