As Mark records Peter’s riveting eyewitness account of Jesus’ miraculous calming of a fierce storm, we encounter the unmatched power of Jesus that should strike both fear and comfort in our hearts. But, this story is not just about how Jesus is Lord of the storm and so can calm the storms of your heart, though that is true. It is far greater than that. It goes to the very heart of who Jesus is – as Lord of all, as supremely faithful, and as Savior of the world. Even as we might empathize with the disciples’ plight and reactions, let us not forget that the Jesus who was there for them yesterday is the same Jesus who is here for us today.
