Luke 8:17-27

17 There is nothing hidden, which shall not be openly seen; nor anything secret, which shall not be known and come into the light of day.
18 Be careful, therefore, how you hear; for whoever has anything, to him more shall be given, and whoever has nothing, even that which he thinks he has shall be taken away from him."
19 Then came to Him His mother and His brothers, but could not get near Him for the crowd.
20 But He was told, "Your mother and brothers are standing on the edge of the crowd, and want to see you."
21 "My mother and my brothers," He replied, "are these who hear God's Message and obey it."
22 One day He went on board a boat--both He and his disciples; and He said to them, "Let us cross over to the other side of the Lake." So they set sail.
23 During the passage He fell asleep, and there came down a squall of wind on the Lake, so that the boat began to fill and they were in deadly peril.
24 So they came and woke Him, crying, "Rabbi, Rabbi, we are drowning." Then He roused Himself and rebuked the wind and the surging of the water, and they ceased and there was a calm.
25 "Where is your faith?" He asked them. But they were filled with terror and amazement, and said to one another, "Who then is this? for He gives orders both to wind and waves, and they obey Him."
26 Then they put in to shore in the country of the Gerasenes, which lies opposite to Galilee.
27 Here, on landing, He was met by one of the townsmen who was possessed by demons--for a long time he had not put on any garment, nor did he live in a house, but in the tombs.
