PRAYER MOMENT
Tuesday 2 July 2013
BUT HE WAS ASLEEP
Pause. Be quiet
for a moment..
Reading. “Without
warning a storm broke out over the lake, so violent that the waves were
breaking right over the boat. But he was asleep.” (Matt 8:23-27)
Reflection. Those
who go in boats know that a sudden squall can happen any time and you can feel
helpless. The disciples felt that and cried out to Jesus. But his reaction was
to reproach them a little, “why so little faith?” Perhaps they were the ones
who were asleep. They were not yet awake to what Jesus’ presence meant. Storms
come in our lives too and what do we do?.
Prayer. “Save us,
Lord, we are going down.” We make that prayer with the disciples but we also ask
your help to trust you. To trust that with you no harm can come and we will get
out of this storm one way or another. Amen.
