At least four of the disciples were experienced fishermen, very familiar with sailing a boat on the Sea of Galilee. But one night they encountered a storm which frightened them all—to the point they thought the ship would sink and they would all be killed in the waves and wind. But Jesus was soundly sleeping in the stern of the boat!
The terrified disciples called to Jesus, saying “Master! Don’t you care that we are dying?” Jesus got up and simply said to the storm and wind, “Peace! Be still.”
The wind and waves immediately stopped and the sea became calm. The disciples were still afraid, but now they were afraid of Jesus—“What kind of man is this, that even the wind and the waves obey Him?”
We serve that kind of Savior—with all power over His creation. We can trust Him to take care of us just as He took care of the disciples. God loves us, and is certainly able to do what we need.
Join us Sunday as we celebrate F.R.O.G. Day (“Fully Rely On God” ) as we learn about this important story in the Bible. Don’t forget to invite a friend!
Tom and Sydney Cook
