Friday
Read Mark 4:35-41
35 On the evening of that same day Jesus
said to his disciples, “Let us go across to the other side of the lake.” 36 So
they left the crowd; the disciples got into the boat in which Jesus was already
sitting, and they took him with them. Other boats were there too. 37 Suddenly a
strong wind blew up, and the waves began to spill over into the boat, so that
it was about to fill with water. 38 Jesus was in the back of the boat, sleeping
with his head on a pillow. The disciples woke him up and said, “Teacher, don't
you care that we are about to die?”
39 Jesus stood up and commanded the wind, “Be quiet!” and he said to the waves, “Be still!” The wind died down, and there was a great calm. 40 Then Jesus said to his disciples, “Why are you frightened? Do you still have no faith?”
41 But they were terribly afraid and began to say to one another, “Who is this man? Even the wind and the waves obey him!”

Think
As you think about the things in your life
that could be counted as storms; remember that Jesus never leaves you alone in
your storms.
Pray
Lord, help me to have the faith to know
that you have the power to calm the storms of my life.
