DAY NINETEEN – Wednesday, March 15, 2023
Mark 6:45-52
After the miracle of the five loaves and two fishes feeding the five thousand men–Jesus decided to go alone to a quiet place to pray to his Father–to talk to him–bring peace to his soul.
Jesus saw the disciples’ boat in the middle of the sea–straining at rowing the boat. He came to them–a bright light walking on the water–the storm ceased. Another miracle done by Jesus–to bring comfort and cease their fears. For he was with them in their time of need. They recognized him.
I can just imagine if I was there–the bright figure of someone walking on the water and the storm ceased–I would be frightened too–but he said not to be afraid and they recognized him. A calmness comes over us.
Just like our darkest hour of trouble, fear, and need for someone to help us–he will be there–not to be afraid.
