Weekly Devotion

Are you tired?

Mark 4:35-41
by Brian Knitter, Elder

In this passage of scripture, Jesus has just completed a long day surrounded by throngs of people. He basically says "let's get out of here." One purpose getting in a boat and going to the other side of the sea of Galilee was so Jesus could rest. He was human after all, and therefore physically tired. About half-way across this five mile wide lake, a big storm comes up. Where is Jesus? He's asleep on the sail of the boat, known as "the cushion." Hmmm, let's stop right there. . . (read on)
