Jesus: even the winds and waves obey him

 Jesus: even the winds and waves obey him by ric gustafson

One time, Jesus and his disciples were in a boat crossing the Sea of Galilee. All of a sudden, a storm comes. Huge waves were slapping the boat. Imagine yourself in that boat. The boat is sturdy but not for those waves. All you hear are screams and prayers. You are looking around. Where is Jesus?.

Then you see Jesus asleep at the back of the boat. One of the disciples wakes him up. " Teacher, don't you care if we drown?".

Why was he sleeping when everybody was panicking?. Because he was in charge of the storm. What did he do?. He got up, rebuked the wind and told the waves to be still.

He turned to the disciples. " Why are you afraid do you still have no faith?".

The disciples had never met anyone like Jesus. Even the wind and the waves obeyed him.

Praise Jesus's name.
