The boat was taking on water, and Jesus was asleep. The disciples woke Him with a question that comes easy when you’re scared. Didn’t He care that they were about to die?
Jesus stood up and spoke, and the wind stopped. Then the men who’d been afraid of the storm looked at the man in the boat with them and wondered who He was. They’d thought the waves had the last word right up until they heard His.
It’s easy to talk about trust once the water settles. The next time fear tells you the Lord must have forgotten you, remember where Jesus was while the waves were still coming over the side.
“… what manner of man is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?” —Mark 4:41
