Mark 4:37-38 CEB
Gale-force winds arose, and waves crashed against the boat so that the boat was swamped. But Jesus was in the rear of the boat, sleeping on a pillow.
They woke him up and said,
"Teacher, don't you care that we're drowning?"
Mark 4:37-38 CEB
This story raises so many questions!
What did Jesus know about the storm?
Did he intentionally get them to sail into harms way?
How could he sleep through this drama and have to be woken up?
And what if anything are we to make of this for us today, 2,000yrs later?
In a couple of years Jesus wasn't going to be physically in the boat with his team, but he does say that he is still "with" them.
With them in this world that wants to shape them into something it wants, when the storms hit, when nothing seems right, He is "with".
The disciples had the right idea, go and find Jesus and ask him, seek him out in the storm, find him "with" you.
