the madman of Gadara page 1 by ric gustafson
This day I will remember for a long time. The other followers of the Teacher along with myself were listening to him tell us a story about some seeds sprouting and growing. As with most of his stories, we asked him to explain it because we did not understand.
Later that day, the Teacher said to us " let us go across to the other side of the Sea". When he got onto the small boat, he looked very tired and sleepy. He walked to the back of the boat, laid his head on a cushion and went to sleep. As we started across the Sea, the weather was fine but as we kept rowing the sky got darker and the waves got choppier. As we kept rowing, it started to storm and waves started to come over our small boat. I and the others on our boat were starting to panic that we were going to die.
I ran up to the Teacher and shook him. " Teacher, we are all going to drown".
Peace and God's blessings. Love Ric.
