“Hush, be still.”
(Mark 4:39)
When Jesus rebuked the winds and the waves – He did so with a whisper and it obeyed. The reaction of the apostles? Fear. Fear of the waves turned to fear of Him who could still those waves with a gentle rebuke.
“They became very much afraid and said to one another, “Who then is this, that even the wind and the sea obey Him?”
When we recognize the power of Jesus – we learn to be still, too. The waves and winds of this life no longer become the problem they once were. The only thing that matters is if you are right with Him. If you are in Jesus’ boat, then nothing else matters.
Don’t fear life – fear Him. Get off the world’s bandwagon and get in Jesus’ boat.
