Mark 4:37-39 - 37 And a great windstorm arose, and the waves were breaking into the boat, so that the boat was already filling. 38 But he was in the stern, asleep on the cushion. And they woke him and said to him, “Teacher, do you not care that we are perishing?” 39 And he awoke and rebuked the wind and said to the sea, “Peace! Be still!” And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm.
The Wind & the Water.
During this storm that Jesus slept through, it was the waves that were rocking the boat.
When He woke up, He commanded the WIND to be quiet and the WATER to be still.
Why?
Many times I ask God to make the waves stop rocking my boat but fail to ask Him to reveal to me what is causing the rough winds.
Prayer: Holy Spirit, help me not seek just the solution for my symptoms but show me where the source of the agitation lies.
Love you 🫶
