Who Is In the Boat With You?

The storm crashed against the wooden fishing boat. Waves tossed it, rolling it nearly on its side. The men inside clung to whatever they could find, terror-stricken. Up on the crest of a wave they flew, then down into a trough, heavy seas around and above them. Lightning split the inky sky, and wind shrieked louder than the roar of the waves.

With rain and sea water filling the boat, the men stumbled back to the One who lay peacefully sleeping under a crude shelter. How could He not know about the storm? Wasn’t He frightened? Didn’t He realize they were about to sink?

“Master, master, we are perishing!” they yelled.

So He arose and spoke sharply to the storm. He rebuked the wind and the waves and they were quiet.

“What manner of man is this?” His friends asked, “for He commands even the winds and the water and they obey Him.”

When the storms of life threaten and it seems you are about to sink, Who is in the boat with you?
