Paul was put on a ship to go to Rome. A terrible storm hit, and it lasted for days and days!
Everyone was scared. They couldn't see the sun or stars. But an angel told Paul, “Don't be afraid. Everyone on this ship will be safe.”
Paul said, “Cheer up! I believe God!” The ship crashed and broke apart near an island, but all 276 people made it safely to shore, just like God said!
