Peace Be Still

Through the storm, the disciples would discover much about the Lord that would increase their faith. 

As waves slammed around them, Jesus slept in the boat. 

They didn’t realize it at the time, but the disciples were much safer with Jesus in the storm than standing on shore without Him. 

In their moment of desperation they cried out to Him.  

Mark 4:39 And he arose, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea, Peace, be still. And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm.

I’m glad Jesus still speaks peace to troubled lives. In His sovereign will He may not immediately remove the storm, but He can provide the peace we need to endure it, and He will never leave us. 

Mark 4:41 And they feared exceedingly, and said one to another, What manner of man is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?
