Calming the Storm
Thursday, March 26, 2015
After a long period of ministry and teaching to huge crowds of people Jesus told his tired disciples to get into a fishing boat with him so they could go all go to the other side of the Sea of Galilee. They were in great need of some rest and relaxation. As they were crossing, a sudden storm blew up and began to threaten their attempt to cross the sea. The wind was strong, the waves were boisterous and the small vessel began to rock and take on water. The situation was such that these seasoned fishermen were even fearful for their lives.
