Jesus calms the storm

Mark 4:39

“He awoke and rebuked the wind, and said to the sea, "Peace! Be still!" The wind ceased and there was a great calm.”

Jesus and His disciples were crossing the lake in a boat. Jesus was so tired that He fell asleep on a cushion. Suddenly a very strong storm came! The waves were so high that water poured into the boat. The frightened disciples woke Jesus: Teacher, don't you care if we drown? Jesus got up and said to the wind and the sea: quiet, be still! And everything became calm. The disciples asked each other: who is this, that even the wind and the sea obey Him?

💡 What we learn

Jesus is stronger than any storm. With Him in the boat, we don't need to be afraid.
