Don’t you care if we drown?
—Mark 4:38
Jesus’ disciples were terrified! They had been in lots of storms, but never one like this.
Most of them were experienced mariners. They had grown up around water; were professional fishermen; knew how to handle a boat.
But they were no match for this storm.
Jesus was sound asleep, and that rubbed them the wrong way. They woke him and gave him an earful: “Don’t you care if we drown?”
Is this your story too? Have you been ambushed by storms where your abilities and faith came up short, and solutions seemed out of reach? Are you leaning into brutal headwinds today?
