The Storm at Sea

Mark 4:35-41: What power in those words of the Lord, who faces down the treacherous storm in front of him, that sea that men feared and that seemed to unfurl its wrath against them. The sea is a force so fierce that no human might can contain it, ever…. And he woke up and rebuked the wind and said to the sea, ‘Quiet now! Be calm!’ And the wind dropped, and all was calm again. Trust in God: This is the message of the Gospel. On that day, what saved the disciples from shipwreck was the fact of taking Jesus in the boat, before beginning the crossing. Preached by Fr.
