In the boat one evening, Jesus told his disciples “Let’s cross over to the other side of the lake.”

Shortly afterwards, a dangerous storm came up. The storm was so violent that the disciples were afraid that the boat was going to be swamped by the waves and they were going to drown. They went to get Jesus and found him sleeping on the cushions in the back of the boat. His disciples woke him saying “Master we’re going to die!”

He said to them “Why do you have so little faith?”

Then he got up and rebuked the winds and the waves saying “Silence! Be still!”

Everything suddenly went calm. His disciples were amazed and asked each other “Who is this that even the winds and the waves obey him?”
