You have to be a very particular kind of nerd to get this, but this is absolutely hilarious…
In the Gospels, we read about a time when Jesus and His Apostles were in a boat on the water and a storm hit:
Read moreOne day he got into a boat with his disciples, and he said to them, “Let us go across to the other side of the lake.” So they set out, and as they sailed he fell asleep. And a storm of wind came down on the lake, and they were filling with water, and were in danger. And they went and woke him, saying, “Master, Master, we are perishing!” And he awoke and rebuked the wind and the raging waves; and they ceased, and there was a calm. He said to them, “Where is your faith?” And they were afraid, and they marveled, saying to one another, “Who then is this, that he commands even wind and water, and they obey him?”

Why are you sad oh my soul
Why so angry now with yourself
Do you not know there is hope
Don’t you know this isn’t the end
Oh I know that with all these shadows
That somewhere there is sunshine
Out of sight but morning’s coming
One more, one more step
I know you can do it
One more one more step
Yes I know you’ll make it through
One more more step
Slowly and steady you will win this race
One more, one more step
And you’ll reach the promised land
There can be peace in the trouble
It’s the art of lifting your eyes
There can be joy in the sorrow
It may hurt, oh but still you’ve got to keep singing
Oh don’t you dare give up now
The wall’s about to come down
Don’t you dare take your last breath
You’re almost out of the wilderness
