Tradcatknight: Jesus Asleep?
By: Eric Gajewski
Matthew 8:23-27 At that time, Jesus got into a boat, and His disciples followed Him. And behold, there arose a great storm on the sea, so that the boat was covered by the waves; but He was asleep. So they came and woke Him, saying, Lord, save us! we are perishing! But He said to them, Why are you fearful, O you of little faith? Then He arose and rebuked the wind and the sea, and there came a great calm. And the men marvelled, saying, What manner of Man is this, that even the wind and the sea obey Him?
Let not your heart be troubled. God is still in control both in your individual lives and with His Church. There are far too many complaining by raising their voices to God demanding God end this crisis in the Storm. Be careful lest you tempt the Lord with your contemptuous tongue. God has a plan and does not answer to man thus we must continue on until Jesus Himself desires to end the Storm. Which one of us will add a few years to our lives by worrying about when God “will act” in this crisis? None of us therefore we must continue to labor on and control what we can control. Perhaps God knows best? Perhaps even better than you? Perhaps the more time that is granted unto man to convert the more actually will? Let us take a look at todays gospel and apply it to this current crisis in the Church.
