Peace! Be Still!
"And a great storm of wind arose, and the waves beat into the boat, so that the boat was already filling. But he was in the stern, asleep on the cushion; and they woke him and said to him, "Teacher, do you not care if we perish?" And he awoke and rebuked the wind, and said to the sea, "Peace! Be still!" And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm. He said to them, "Why are you afraid? Have you no faith?" And they were filled with awe, and said to one another, "Who then is this, that even wind and sea obey him?" – Mark 4:37-41, which is part of today's Gospel at Mass. My sermon for today can be read here. Stained glass detail by Douglas Strachan from Holy Trinity church in St Andrews.
